NEW for 2023! Ceilidh dance classes start this January

IF YOU’VE ever wanted to learn traditional British dances – jigs, hornpipes, reels, polkas – then now’s your chance!

Organised by Hornsea Ceilidh Band, monthly classes will start on Monday, January 23. The classes are being held at the Methodist church hall in Hornsea.

Doors open 7pm, dancing starts 7.30pm until 9.30pm. The cost is £4 per person, in cash on the door.

Band leader Alison Riley said:

The dances are easy to follow and our caller will explain the steps before each dance. It’s good exercise and a lot of fun. Beginners and experienced dancers are all welcome. You don’t need to bring a partner- everyone just joins in. We are trialling the classes for three months. If there is enough interest, we’ll keep going throughout the year. There’s no need to book, just turn up.

Live music will be provided by Hornsea Ceilidh Band. Dancers need to bring their own soft drink or water (no alcohol is allowed). There’s no dress code but flat shoes are recommended for dancing.

There is free parking next to the venue in the Cinema Street car park.

The classes are on Monday 23rd January, Monday 27th February and Monday 27th March.
