Lose weight, feel great: Shall We Dance Academy announces new 2013 dance classes

Shall We Dance Newry has announced it will hold new beginners social dance classes for all those men and women who have made it their New Year’s Resolution to learn how to dance and get in shape in 2013.

Commencing on Tuesday 5th February 2013 in St James Hall, Mullaghbrack, Markethill from 7:30pm to 8:30 pm an enjoyable 8 week course in learning the Slow Waltz, Quickstep and Jive! Each class is £6 per person.

This is followed by an improvers class at 8:45pm to 9:45pm, which will be an update of the dances you have already learned plus the adding of a new dance. This is also an 8 week course and is also £6 per person. Keep your mind and body fit for the New Year!

Shall We Dance? Newry was launched last year by local dancing supremos Gerald and Patricia Malone from Newry, who have already run several very successful classes in Bessbrook and Mullaghbrack.
Gerald and Patricia have won Ballroom and Latin American dancing competitions throughout the UK and Ireland so their experience has left the first batches of beginner dancers with some nifty moves to show off wherever they go.

The Newry duo, who have been dancing for over 25 years competitively and socially, boast All-Ireland honours amongst their impressive array of medals and trophies.

Dancing is a great way to stay in shape and enjoy yourself but Gerald insists it is also a fantastic way to make new friends.

“We started dancing nearly 25 years ago and since then we have met so many amazing people and have forged life-long friendships with people from across the country.

He added, “A lot of people have brought in the new year by promising to live a healthier lifestyle, learn to dance and make new friends. Our class will let you do all three and the most important thing is to enjoy yourself.

The Newry-based couple were delighted with how their eagerly anticipated first social dance class in Mullaghbrack fared.

“It was fantastic,” insisted Gerald. “The couples have enjoyed themselves tremendously. Some were there to learn the ‘first dance’ before they get married, others were there to enjoy the social element but all just really seem to be enjoying themselves.

Spaces for the classes are limited so it is advised you register your interest early to avoid disappointment.
