Events

We meet on Wednesdays at 7:30 pm until about 9.30pm at the Caldy Valley Centre, Caldy Valley Road, Chester CH3 5PR - that's by the Sainsbury's roundabout in Great Boughton.  Plenty of free parking at the venue.

Wednesday evening sessions are in two parts:

  • From 7:30pm to around 8.30pm the session is led by Christine we may learn and practice basic steps and new (to us) dances but these timings are flexible.  The dances in this part of the evening may have a full 'walk-through' so it's very good for beginners and improvers - and the more experienced will help the less experienced. This is followed by a short comfort break and any announcements (of dances, etc).
  • Please note, no refreshments are provided and you are advised to bring water with you together with a good sense of humour!
  • From approximately 8.40pm 'til we run out of steam, we have 45 minutes of social dancing; dances are recapped and walked through, if needed. This part of the evening is a bit more challenging, and not all dances may be suitable for beginners. We are now grading dances throughout the evening according to difficulty.

  • We also hope to hold our special dances as usual and list the dates below:

  • Our Presidents/Christmas Dance will be held on Saturday 13 December 2025 at Guilden Sutton Village Hall commencing 7.15 until 10.30pm.  Ticket price £15. (Music by John Browne).

To find out more call Christine on 01244 545550 or Janis on 07704 896957 (who will be able to sell you tickets).

Please note those dances with * at the beginning of the dance do not, as yet, have any minicribs in place.  They are in the new book that Tarporley have put together (Cheshire Branch 40th Anniversary).

I may change the order of these dances and add others as necessary.  Also if we have newcomers I will be introducing other dances.
