Dance has always been and will always be a huge part of our lives and a massive form of communication and expression in every culture on the planet.
Dance has evolved throughout the time; from the 1920s with the Charleston through to the 2020s with various Tik Tok dances, people always had different styles of dance to express the way they were feeling.
This can be best explored during one of our Turn Back Time dance workshops as it not only demonstrates that change but it brings period of historical importance to life.
