Folk it Up! ☃️ 9th December

Groundbreaking news! No more new dances

.

.
(For this session.)

For our last Folk it Up! gathering before the Christmas holidays, we’ll take time to appreciate the dances we’ve explored so far by reviewing them together.

If you’ve joined previous sessions, this is the perfect chance to refresh your memory and let the steps and the essence of the dances sink into your body and mind.

If you’re new to Folk it Up!, this session will be a great introduction to the project!

Do you have a dance in mind that we haven’t tried yet and that you’d love to share?
No worries—Folk it Up! continues in 2026! There will be plenty of opportunities to suggest new dances, and we volunteers are already all ears for ideas for the upcoming year.

Here are the Folk it Up! dates for January 2026: Thursday 15th, Tuesday 27th
