It keeps you fit
Perfect regular exercise to keep you in shape. A low impact activity requiring constant movement and directional changes. A fun way to burn off the calories - during an hour of dancing you can use between 400 and 800 calories.
During an evening's dance you are guaranteed to fulfil a large chunk of your 10,000 steps target for the day.

It's fun
Enjoy dancing from the first night onwards.  It brings people together for fun and friendship. We laugh a lot, the best medicine of all.

It's a mental challenge
- It's very easy to pick up the basic moves and you are learning all the time. Reacting quickly to the caller keeps you mentally on your toes.  
- With regular attendance your dancing will become almost second nature like walking or running. There is no obligation to move to a higher programme, but by invitation, you can, should you wish to continue to learn more.

SOCIAL SQUARE DANCING BEGINNERS CLASSES START:
MONDAY 31st October 2022 7.30-10pm at The Centre @ Halton LA2 6NB

Monday 31st October 2022 is a FREE taster session, followed by 12-16 teaching sessions at £4.00 weekly.

It's for everyone 
Whether you are single or a couple, it doesn't matter and it's suitable for ages 14 to 80.
It's good music
We dance to a whole range of music from pop to all-time favourites. Listen to good singing at the same time
It's teamwork
Four couples form a square and dance a pattern of moves sung by the caller.  We depend on each other to keep the dance moving.​​
What else?
The club organises some social events.  We sometimes hold fundraising events to raise money for charities.

​New members
Recruitment is important to us. From this year, as we are now teaching Social Square Dancing and should be able to start beginners 2 or 3 times a year, which is far better than once in 2 years as previously.

We will be recruiting new dancers to join our SSD teaching programme taking 12-16 weeks. The first session will be a free taster session.
Our commitment to new dancers is to teach them all the moves in SSD programme in 12-16 weeks and to provide fun and enjoyable dancing evenings whilst they meet up with old and new friends. To become proficient and confident dancers will take more practice.
