Friday 30th September

[DianaS]

I'll be in London dazzled by the bright lights of Leicerster Square. I was wondering if there's any place worth dropping into later in the evening for a lesson or freestyle.

It seems very quiet that way on my events lists

I think Hipsters might be on that night as there is a date change . . . .

not sure though

[Jooles]

Or, the Casbah. Close to South Kensington tube

[DianaS]

what happens at the Casbah then?
Sounds interesting Does any one know if Hipsters will be on on the 30th??
Godda dance I'll have been in a conference ALL DAY

[Jooles]

The Casbah is a usual Ceroc night........Beginners lesson, Intermediate lesson and freestyle until 11 I think. Aussie Simon sometimes teaches, Mike Ellard often teaches. I don't always make the class so not sure who is the most regular.

Small bar serving beer, wine and soft drinks. the music can be very hit and miss. It was probably the worst I have ever known it this Friday. Lots of people complaining about songs which were not easy to dance to.

At this time of year though be warned, it gets very, very hot. Make sure, if you do come to the Casbah, that you wear something very cool.

Hey thanks Jooles. I'll have to do a quick change somewhere and find a place to stash my bag!!

It's great to hit a new venue and since I'm in the area...

Bring back Notre Dame ...

Bring back Notre Dame ...

"Notre Dame"?....that name rings a bell

(Yeah I know, you had a hunch someone would come back with that remark! )

Are you doing Rebel Yell the next day then Diana?

[Minnie M]

I will be at Ceroc Surrey (Surbiton) Kyle & Sarah are teaching WCS and I believe the MJ room is open now too (help me Almost an Angel )

[Minnie M]

Bring back Notre Dame ...

ahhhh..... those were the days

Hell No!
What's Rebel Yell though,- it sounds tempting

So nothing new there then for any dance venue I would suggest. If you tried to find a venue where everyone is happy with the music and noone complains you'd probably never leave home.

The Casbah is a great venue, I'm there every week, never miss it unless I'm on a weekender. Gary has taught there roughly six or seven classes during the last couple of months so is that regular? Unless there's a change of plan, Simon isn't due to teach there that night.

Lots of room to change in the downstairs ladies where you'll be joined by a group of other lasses doing the same thing after work. There is also a loo for the disabled upstairs where you can have some privacy if you are shy. Plenty of room to leave your luggage by the coat racks or inside, take your pick.

Have a nice time wherever you decide to go Diana

An all day workshop event in Woking, formerly run by the lovely Katy Baxter (Rebel Roc), now run by Ceroc Surrey. The day ends with a great evening of freestyle, complete with (usually) an awesome cabaret.

Rebel Yell

But I'm seriously tempted!

I've heard a rumour that certain people do both - sort of makes sense, Casbah finishes around 11pm, and it's only a 20 minute drive to Hipsters, which doesn't really get lively till after 10pm and finishes at 1am....

So you'd get two classes, and nigh-on 4 hours of freestyle, if you did both.
