Barbara Wigg, Lynette Eldon
& members of DUKES DANDY Clog Dance Team.
This year Barbara will be joined by Lynette Eldon and members of Step Clog Team DUKES DANDY, accompanied on fiddles by JIM ELDON and DAVID WIGG, with GERARD the 'Violin playing' Puppet also putting in a welcome appearance.
Come along to the beginners' workshops and find out how much fun clog dancing can be, whilst learning a few basic steps to put into a routine. Clogs in various sizes will be available to borrow for the duration of the workshop, or wear flat shoes (preferably not trainers). Accompanying music will be provided by husband David, on fiddle.
Notation will be available as an aide mémoire.
