Strictly go dancing for Bracknell over 50s at South Hill Park Arts Centre

Bracknell Forest Council and South Hill Park Arts Centre have brought back sessions designed to let the over 50s learn new dancing skills.

Led by Di Rudduck, an experienced teacher and mature dancer, Bracknell participants can try the tango, get a feel for the foxtrot or sample salsa at a level where they feel comfortable - including using a chair to help be more mobile. No previous experience is necessary.

Twinkle toed participants from last year’s classes said it helped them feel more positive, energetic, relaxed and gave them a chance to socialise and make new friends.

The classes run every Friday at South Hill Park Arts Centre in Ringmead, Bracknell, from 1.30pm to 2.45pm.

It costs just £2.50 per person, and there is no need to book - just turn up with comfortable clothes and appropriate footwear.

Cllr Iain McCracken, Executive Member for Bracknell Leisure, Corporate Services and Public Protection, said: "I am really pleased the dance classes for over 50s are returning as they were so well received by participants last year.

"If you fancy trying dancing for the first time, do try coming along and enjoy learning in a friendly and supportive atmosphere."
