All the Rest.....So Far

Circle Dance

Circle Dancing embraces the joy of life. Every circle has its own personality and energy. Through the power of the circle the group unites and moves as one. Be a part of these circles, have fun and let your creativity flow. Dances can be slow and meditative, faster and energising, lyrical and relaxing, always beautiful.

No prior experience is needed to liberate the dancer within. Wear loose clothing and soft shoes and be prepared to revitalise your mind, body and spirit.

Dance your dreams awake!

N.I.T.B.O.T.

N.I.T.B.O.T. stands for Not In The Best Of Taste and is a satire of the Circle Dance movement. It's not for the squeamish and any sacred cows must be tethered outside the auditorium. It's only really suitable for those with experience of Circle Dance as the jokes are not explained. Done with love for Circle Dance which can sometime benefit from being de-sacralised.

Approx. duration 2 - 3 hours.
