Common Questions:

What is a Ceilidh?

English Ceilidh (with Ceilidh being pronounced 'kaylee') is a more riotous and eclectic variation on English Folk, Barn or Country dancing. Simple Folk Dances done with energy to music deriving from Irish to Caribbean.

It's what you get when you take the gentler English Country or Folk dancing and add 

excitement. The form of the dances is basically simple. The quality of the dance is very much dependent on the band plus how well the band, caller and dancers get on 

with each other.

The new wave of English Ceilidh bands use a mix of traditional and recent tunes and 

variety of styles; there's as much Rock, Jazz and Roots as there is Folk.

The Irish 'Ceili' describes more of a party with dancing, 'Ceilidh' seems to be the 

Scottish spelling. 'English Ceilidh' has its roots with these dances and events but has developed a style of its own....

But I don't know any of the dances....

You don't need to!! Our caller John will walk you through everything first, then the 

music kicks in, and he continues calling - the moves are very easy, and its not about getting it right - as long as everyone has fun.

Do I need to dress up.

Not at all - wear something comfortable, be prepared to get quite warm if you intend on dancing a lot. Flat shoes, such as trainers are better for dancing.

Are there refreshments?

We have a fully licenced bar.

Can I smoke in the dance room?

Yes, although please be considerate to those that are dancing.

 

If you have another other questions please do not hesitate to contact me -
