Welcome

Welcome to the nineteenth century! Ladies are wearing long dresses with wide skirts of a shimmering fabric that move elegantly while they dance. Their one hand is holding a fan and their other is draped on the arm of their gentlemen, who are wearing a snazzy suit. In the background piano and harpsichord music is playing.

Would you like to spend two hours a week in the nineteenth century? Would you like to wear beautiful costumes? And would you like to dance like Keira Knightley in Pride and Prejudice? Then join us for a dance soon!
