Workshops are an opportunity to go into the dances in more depth and experience them as part of a theme. Indulge yourself in the dance and enjoy meeting circle dancers from all over the north and beyond!

Dances from the Balkans led by David Roberts  19-20 April 

34 dancers from all over Britain attended this wonderful weekend! Circle dancers from as far away as Wales, London and Edinburgh came to York to dance with David, one of the first teachers at the beginning of the movement in the early 1980s. And half the dancers were circle dance teachers themselves. See the Feedback page for comments from participants about the weekend.
