The organisers say they will be bringing dances both traditional and modern, danced to many different kinds of music from around the world. No previous experience is needed and you can be any age or level of ability, provided you are willing to have a go and enjoy yourself.
World Dance is a form of social dance that often takes the form of a circle, which is very supportive for the beginner. It is non-competitive, does not require a partner and is also a very gentle form of exercise.
The circle is a symbol of wholeness and dancing this form creates a sense of well-being and togetherness. The dances also have a wide variety of mood, from the energetic and celebratory to slower, more contemplative ‘’moving meditations'’.
