Leeds Ceilidh

This is a plug for an event I am hosting. A ceilidh... (pronounced kay-lee). Its a social dance event and loads of fun.

Thursday 10th November, 7.30pm-10.30pm, Left Bank Leeds, Cardigan road, LS6 1LJ

You might have been to a ceilidh before at a wedding reception or you may have never even heard of one before. Its a bit like a barn dance, but its not line dancing, or morris dancing (so don't panic!).

But I can't dance/ won't know what to do....
It's ok, the band has a caller, a guy who teaches each dance and then shouts out the moves as you dance. The steps are really simple.

If I come I will be forced to dance...
Maybe by your mates but not by us, if you want to sit at the side with a beer that is fine, you wont be picked out by the band or pressured to get up and dance.

But I will look stupid if I get it wrong...
Everyone gets it wrong at some point- I do all of the time, its part of the fun.

Its only £6 a ticket, there is a bar, £2-£2.50 a drink. The band are the awesome Blackbeard's Tea Party, a really young, lively fun band, worth  coming to listen to even if you don't want to dance.

Great as a work or club social, and also enjoyed by older kids (who are welcome 1/2 price).

Any profits will be donated to 'Life for African Mothers' a fantastic worthwhile charity that provides life saving medications to pregnant women in sub Saharan Africa.

Join the facebook group, message, text, phone or email me if you want a ticket or just to ask more questions.
