Ceilidh Cornwall

Ceilidh (barndance) classes with caller Kate Smith, focusing on joining in and having fun. A great, friendly alternative to an exercise class, excellent for physical and mental wellbeing.

Ceilidh dancing is fun - this is the main goal of these classes, to have fun! I will encourage you to join in, get moving and have a go. Classes are inclusive, informal and friendly.  No partner is required and no experience is required. You can’t look silly, you won’t be laughed at.

As well as traditional Scottish ceilidh dances we will enjoy similar style dances from across the UK, the USA and sometimes from elsewhere in the world.

We’ll be exercising our bodies and our minds! We regularly clock up 3000 to 4500 steps in an hour and a half. If you have any aches and pains or moves that you can’t do, do let me know. We can adapt many dances to suit you if required. We will also work as a team to master some dances if they prove tricky – multiple brains are better than one.

These classes are suitable for ages 12 to adults. Please do get in touch if you would like to discuss suitability.

I've been dancing since I was little, growing up in northeast Scotland - I look forward to sharing the joy of ceilidh with you too!
