Rock n Roll Dancing for Beginners

WELCOME to this website dedicated to the 2010/11 WEA ‘Rock n Roll’ [“RnR”] Dancing - Intermediate course [Tutor - Terry Pullen]. This course will run weekly over 20x1.5hr sessions starting at 8pm on Wednesday evenings at The Old Barn Hall Bookham from September 29th 2010 and complete on March 16th 2011. See the bottom of this page for separate links to various topics and information applicable to this course. separate ‘Venue’ information for further details and location maps.

This site is not an official WEA site but is provided and maintained by the course tutor as an extra resource to the course information and teaching material. Additional pre-course advice is given here below on relevant topics to help those, considering attending, to decide if it is the right course for them. Once the courses are underway other material will be added such as move descriptions and music details etc.. There is an email facility provided for course members, or potential members, to contact the tutor with any RnR dance or other course related queries - see the separate Information section.

	INFORMATION & ENROLMENT - To enrol for this course see the 'enrolment' link here or at the bottom of this page. You can also pick up a copy of the WEA's 2010/11 "Courses for Adults - Surrey " publication from local libraries, community centres etc, and complete the "Advance Booking" form contained therein. For further information it is recommended to contact the WEA's local course organiser Mrs Joy Tapping on Tel: 01306 713355. IMPORTANT - Ideally everyone joining this course should attend with a partner, those without a partner will be 'paired up' where possible. A number of persons, for whom a partner cannot be found [experience shows that this will often be ladies], can normally be accommodated, however if the total number exceeds the number of couples then the time between dancing with a partner will be extended and some may find this unacceptable. Alternatively some single persons [as already mentioned, this tends to be ladies] could learn to dance the gentlemen's steps but again some might find this unacceptable. It is possible that a complete imbalance of those with partners and those without might actually mean that the course will not run. This issue will be addressed and discussed at the first session. It would be helpful to confirm, when booking this course, if you will be attending on your own or with a partner. The course 'make-up' did not adversely affect the 2009/10 courses.
