January 2027
Session type: Cancan choreo course ( 6 Saturdays )
in the build up to perform at Bastille Day Festival Reading
Dates: Saturdays
16th January / 20th February / 13th March / 17th April / 15th May /26th June 2027
Time: 10:30am
Option1: Complete course ( all 6 sessions ) £55
Option2: Pay as you go £13 ( needs preregistration at least 24 hours prior to avoid overbooking, space limit is 5 per session )
Duration: 1 hour
Where: Home Studio
Additional info:
The cancan choreo moved to this format as we require a certain amount of cancan dancers to perform at Bastille Day Festival and it proved difficult in the past to agree on one date for enough participants to run it. So I am trying this approach instead. This also gives individuals a chance to sign up as a one off just to get an idea of what it is ( provided there is space ) We only have space for 5 dancers at any given date to facilitate this format. Should there be more demand, then I am happy to add another session on the same dates at the same location, but that depends on demand. Thank you all for understanding.

Home studio rehearsal - max 5 people - imaginary props ( not valid for Maiden Place sessions )
This is an extension to the rehearsals run at Maiden Place.
As it is tricky to book a room at a time that fits everyone, I am adding some dates at my home studio, so that everyone gets a chance to rehearse.
Only valid at Hawkedon Way Home Studio for a small number of people
Rehearsing at my home studio means space limitation and props cannot be used as it would implicate health and safety.
If you sign up for these rehearsal sessions you are aware of space restriction and needing to go over the routines without props.
These sessions cost less than the in studio classes for that reason.
