Join me as I attempt a whistle stop tour of the history of dance- cramming over 1,000 years of footwork, choreography and social etiquette into just 30 minutes.

Perfect for anyone whose ever wondered how the medieval peasantry let off steam ; which moves Mr Darcy was busting out on the dance floor; or what on earth a “Black Bottom Shuffle” is… Experience the history of dance spanning the periods from the 10th century to present day in this fun and informative lecture. A perfect introduction to the History of Dance!
