Summertime Old Time Dancing




Over the last 10 years the Old Time Dance Club has grown in popularity and is now one of the largest in the South of England. We meet every Monday afternoon at Normandy Village Hall between 1.45 – 4.15 pm and enjoy the company of 50-60 dancers each week. The Club specialises in Old Time Dances of all ages and as well as the Traditional Old Time Dances we do on occasions teach some of the newer Classical Old Time Dances providing they reasonable closely conform to the Old Time technique. Recent dances taught have included the Tango Victoria (1963), Venetian Foxtrot (1966), Tuesday Blues (1979), Tango Giovanni (2008), Eton Waltz (2008) and the Regency Mazurka, Valentines Gavotte and Saunter Serenata (all 2009). We also try to keep up the tradition of set dances and regularly dance the Lancers, Caledonians, Quadrilles, D'Alberts etc. We hold Old Time Dances during the year with interesting programmes and the very best musicians and we also run 2-3 dancing holidays in Bournemouth per annum. For details please click on DIARY PAGE or HOLIDAY PAGE . Because our programmes are varied we have been able to attract many sequence dancers to our Club which is a great advantage and offers our visitors a more relaxed afternoon without the stress of continual new dances. There is also the opportunity to have regular practice of the dances taught so hopefully you don't forget them. The Club and its Members support the Old Time Dance Society and many of its holiday events. Richard is a past Chairman and Treasurer of the Society and Joyce is the current Chairman so we are actively involved in Promoting Old Time Dancing.
