A big thank you to everyone who came to the New Year’s Eve party dance and made it a great evening. Also, a few days later the Cha, Cha fitness workshop. Both were very well attended with loads of dancing and fun 🙂

The next social dance is on Saturday 11th January at St Stephen’s. Medals will be awarded during the evening. You can book a table with friends. Tea and coffee supplied but feel free to br...ing your own food and drink. Hope to see you there! 🙂
** New in March - Vintage Ballroom Social Dance with The Lavender Belles! **
Make sure to reserve your place for the March social on Saturday 14th March (St Stephen’s Church Hall, Park Avenue EN1 2BA, 7.30pm - 10.30pm) when you’ll have a chance to listen to the amazing Lavender Belles. These four fabulous singers, including our very own Kate, will be making their first appearance with New Life Dance.

Happy New Year to you all!

Thank you everyone for coming to the July Tropical Dance and making it an enjoyable evening and fitting tribute to George (Geriess) Kachkouche who very sadly passed away recently. George regularly came to our classes and was known by many dancers in London. He was a mine of information about Ballroom, Latin and Argentine Tango dances in London and will be sadly missed. All donations have been passed to his family to go to Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis. Our thoughts are with his daughter Greta and family. Martin and Elaine
Hi everyone. Before dance class this Thursday 11th July starting at 6pm we are hosting a free health talk. Please join us as the information you’ll hear can make a real difference to your fitness and overall health. Give me a call for more info. No pressure and there’s a Q and A session at the end. The talk concentrates on illnesses such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, overall health, IBS and much more. Hope you can make it. Best wishes, Martin
Amelia, my daughter, is training to swim the channel next year in support of her good friend Maddy who sadly passed away in 2017 after a very short illness at Great Ormond Street Hospital. Any support and donations will be very much appreciated. Thank you, Martin.
