» SeagraveLeicestershire Victorian Dancers and Dancing with Darcy
.We are a friendly group who try and recreate the dances of the 19th century. We also look at other period dances, if there is an interesting Ball up coming ! We hold regular balls and formal Tea Dances. We also visit other costumed balls around the country. We are willing and able to do dance displays for events. We incorporate the Leicestershire Victorian dancers and Dancing with Darcy groups. Our practise nights are Sundays 7-9pm Practise starts again on Sunday 5th Sept 2010 All welcome, no need for a partner. Accompanied children are also welcome. Cost is £1 per person and we have a tea drink and members often bring cake and biscuits. Open Practises are suitable for those with no experience. Other Sundays are for those with some experience and for more complex dances. Leicestershire Victorian Dancers calendar 2010/11 July August Sept Weekly Sunday practises will concentrate on Victorian dancing, including those with a Scottish flavour, leading up to the ball in September. Mid Sept October - Weekly Sunday practises will concentrate on Regency dancing leading up to the ball in October. Many of these dances are country style and are easy to learn, but we will also address the more complex Coutillions some weeks. November and December Weekly Sunday practises will concentrate on Victorian dancing, particularly the Russian Mazorka Quadrille. The above is a guide only and subject to alteration on occasion.
