DANCING GROUPS:
Social Dancing:
An afternoon of fun, and exercise for the body and mind - this is what you'll find at the social dancing group on Mondays, where you can meet a very friendly bunch of people. The afternoon at Perran-ar-worthal Village Hall begins promptly at 1.30pm with a dance lesson until 2pm. Then there is general dancing until 4pm, with a short break for tea and biscuits. The dance programme is roughly a 50/50 split between ballroom/latin and sequence dancing. We aim to cover all the traditional styles of dance over a 4-week period, accompanied by a wide range of good music. All ages and abilities are welcome - we were all beginners once, so don’t be scared to come and have a go! Unfortunately, we are unable to have the use of the hall on Monday 30th September, so there is no dancing that week. |

Cornish Dancing - Dons Kernewek:
"Dancing could be the best exercise of all to get maximum brain benefit!" These were the words of the presenter of the programme, "The Truth About Getting Fit", shown recently on BBC1. The programme also examined the health advantages of running and cycling but concluded that, for physical benefits plus enhancement of brain function, dancing came out on top.

Dons Kernewek Cornish dance group weekly sessions at 2 - 4 p.m. on Thursdays. Until further notice, the venue will be the Athenaeum Club, Falmouth.
Dons Kernewek will be taking a break over Christmas, with our last session taking place on 5th December. NOT 12th as the hall is need for the election! We will start again on Thursday 9th January, 2 p.m. and we continue for the present to meet at the Athenaeum in Falmouth.
With plenty of new members, our group has grown and flourished over the past year. One of the many good things about learning Cornish dancing is that it makes it much easier to pick up on other types of dance, and so, whenever we can, we take the opportunity to go out together to other dance events. This month's picture shows some of us at the recent U3A Ceilidh, where we had a very good time and are grateful to the organisers for such an enjoyable evening.
Dons Kernewek wishes you all a very Merry Christmas and we look forward to dancing together in the New Year. Nadelik Lowen to everyone!

Rock and Roll
ROCK AND ROLL Rock and Roll will start again in the New Year. Please note the change of venue and day. We are moving to the Parish Rooms at Pulla Cross, which has a lovely floor for dancing, free heating and wi-fi, a large car park, and has to be the cheapest hall to hire in the area. I hope the committee are impressed. We are changing to Wednesday evenings, same time, 7:00 – 9:00 p.m., and hope that those people who couldn't make Tuesdays will be able to join us. Sue and Ray Hutt
