NEW Line Dancing Group
The new sessions will begin on April 3rd, at Westerham Hall, starting at 2.30pm. Fortunately, we have been able to source a ‘live’ instructor, thanks to the efforts of Vera, but there may be some issues to sort out, especially regarding the sound system, so at this class there may be some video content as well as Gemma’s tuition. The standard of the class varies from absolute beginners to more experienced dancers, so all are welcome. At this session the fee will be £3 but in future payment will be made upfront for the next quarter, the amount due will depend on numbers. If you would like to join in, on alternate Monday afternoons. please contact Vera via westerhamu3a@hotmail.co.uk
