Wednesday Evening Border Practice

Wednesday Evening Border Practice

All welcome, whether potential dancers or musicians. Please note that while we can teach you to dance we cannot teach you to play an instruments so musicians need to be competent on their acoustic instrument. We can help you learn to play the tunes we use. Youngsters are very welcome but they do need to be accompanied by an appropriate adult. We are currently working on our Border Morris repertoire.
