No previous knowledge of barn dancing is required for your function. Our encouraging 'caller' puts you through your paces, patiently explaining the various figures, and gauging the general ability of the group, to 'call' dances to suit the standard. Above all, FUN is the name of the game, and everyone is included.

For our nostalgic 'Chuck Berry Tribute' Rock-n-Roll gigs, our driving music means you can just let yourself go and rock the joint!
