Andover Scottish Dancing Club
NEW VENUE - Amesbury, Wiltshire
The Club continues to flourish - with attendances providing sufficient numbers for two sets.
We also continue to enjoy the services of a number of highly competent teachers, which
adds diversity to our repertoire, and makes the dancing even more vibrant and enjoyable.
So, come and join us - it really is a most pleasant and painless way of burning off
the calories and stimulating the mind, as well as making new friends!!
Who are we?
![[Two Couples Dancing]](../graphics/2Couples.png "We believe this graphic to be in the public domain. If you know anything about its origin, do please contact us and let us know.")
More than thirty years ago, there was a Scottish Country Dancing
evening class, run by the local authority, based in the John Hanson
School. However, it was stipulated that the class would only operate
if there was an average attendance of at least fourteen; and, there
were occasions when the class was suspended because of this
requirement. Several of those attending then were Methodists so, in
1983, we set up a Club at the Methodist Church in Bridge Street,
Andover. The Club has always been inter-denominational, and also
continues to include those with no church associations; at present,
there are some 17 members on the books. We are a friendly Club,
with a wide range of dancing ability that welcomes new members.
When do we meet?
