By Justina Braddock
This 10 week dance workshop started in April 2010 and finished in June 2010. The workshop was facilitated by Dave Romaine. Over the 10 weeks participants learned dances from the 40's and 50's such as the Stroll. the Charleston Stroll, Social Foxtrot and the Jive. The participants had various levels from beginners to experts. They all had great fun and on the last session most of the participants came dressed up in 1940's clothes.
At the end of the workshop the participants took part in the schools & communities day at the Armed Forces Weekend at the Redoubt Fortress in Eastbourne.
