MADDEN'S BELFAST - EACH WEDNESDAY 

​TO RESUME ON 13 SEPTEMBER 2023


Join the craic in dance! 
😊

A weekly event - a mixed level class / dance session 

"Maddens bar, even though it resides in the heart of the city, epitomises tradition, warmth and craic; it is renowned for its vibrant traditional music scene."

Each Wednesday from 7-8.30pm 'Step with Annette'  will host an open dance floor session in 2 parts:

a) 30-40 minutes of tuition in old style step dancing, 1 or 2 new steps each week, perhaps 1 easy step and a more advanced step, as the sessions progress there will be some revision of previously taught steps/dances, or dances already known by those attending.  

b) 50-60 minutes of 'open dance floor', repeating the taught step/s and building on repertoire each week, step-about will be encouraged. Between the solo dances, Annette will teach some simple 2-hand dances from Donegal.  

The aim is to get people dancing outside the classroom environment, while also attracting people who are curious about dance and are keen to try a few simple steps - ie something for everyone.
 
Venue: Upstairs @Maddens Bar, Berry Street, Belfast BT1 1FJ


PRICING - a 6 week course: 13 Sept - 18 Oct
1. Payment on wk 1, for all 6 weeks = £36
2. Payment on week 2 for 5 weeks = £30
3. Or cost per session = £7 

As an added bonus, if you pay for the course in advance and miss a week, you will receive a short video of any new steps covered, so that you can catch up before the following week. 

FYI there is always recap each week of the steps covered.
