The Weekend will involve sacred dance - dancing around a focal point, often a candle, to help us feel centred; and opportunity to reflect on the theme. There is no need to bring a partner as all dancing is done in a circle, although, of course, you are welcome to bring a partner or friend. The weekend will begin with an evening meal at 7pm and finish at 2pm.
This weekend is suitable for both experienced circle dancers and those of all ages and abilities who are new to circle dancing. Please note that there is no need for a partner.
