The school is based in the village of Boughton-under-Blean, an easy drive from Faversham and the surrounding area. Parking is generally as you would expect for a village location.
Grapevine, step-touch, kick-ball-change, pivot turn and a basic forward-and-back are the usual first moves. Beginner routines are mostly these steps arranged in sequence.
Dances with a small number of counts and lots of repetition are the kindest to start on. The teacher will point you towards whatever the beginners are learning at the time.
