Are Lancaster Dance classes currently running?

We're sorry these classes are discontinued until we find a new venue. Please get in touch with James directly to check what's happening next.

Do I need a dance partner to join the ballroom and latin classes?

You don't need to bring a partner, as ballroom and latin sessions usually involve changing dance partners. If you'd like to stay with a fixed partner by arrangement, contact us prior to the session.

Lancaster Dance, led by the experienced James Reeder, is reintroducing dance classes in Lancaster at The Centre @ Halton after a 5-year break. With the largest dance floor in Lancaster or Morecambe, this venue offers an excellent environment for learning ballroom, latin, and solo routines. The venue also ensures convenience with extensive onsite parking and CCTV security.

Every Tuesday, adults of all ages and skill levels can join classes starting with beginner solo dances at 7:45pm, followed by beginner ballroom and latin at 8:30pm, and social dancing from 9:15pm. Participants don't need a partner as swapping partners is common, fostering a welcoming and social atmosphere. Those preferring a fixed partner can contact James in advance.

James recommends reaching out to him before attending a class, with classes running through school holidays except for a December break. New dancers are encouraged to join at the start of a new routine to avoid falling behind. Ballroom and latin routines typically last 4-6 weeks, while solo routines span 1-3 weeks.

Each session includes a review of previous steps and the introduction of new ones, ensuring continuity even if a week is missed. Post-class practice sessions offer additional support and social opportunities.

No course fees are required, and admission is cash on the door, making Lancaster Dance a low-pressure way to try dancing. For more details, contact James Reeder at 07778919689 or james@reedersdance.co.uk. Join Lancaster Dance to explore the joy of dancing in a welcoming environment.
