Get on your dancing shoes! A new series of dance lessons set for this Tipperary town

Dance lessons for Beginners/Improvers will commence in The Muintir na Tíre Hall, Roscrea, on Thursday, August 29 and will continue every Thursday night (8-10pm) for 14/15 weeks.

Instructors will teach you the 5 standard dances, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Jive, Slow Waltz and Old Time Waltz. It is best that you bring along your own dance partner but, if not don't worry as they will hopefully be able to help you find one.

Instructor Martin Scully says, "As you know, there are many short cuts to happiness and dancing is definitely one of them. Dancing is the one thing that can solve most of your problems. So dance to feel good. Dance to feel better. Dance to mend a broken heart. And next time you are angry, sad or fatigued...dance, dance, dance. Truly, my friends, life is better when you dance."

If you are interested, please contact Martin on 087-4178311 as soon as possible to secure a spot.

For more experienced dancers who might be interested, intermediate dance lessons are also being catered for and anyone interested can also contact Martin at the above number.
