The famous Jigs Instructional weekend is returning on 20-22 January 2023. Apologies for the short notice, there were issues with venues, but it is still at Sutton Bonington Village Hall LE12 5NJ.
Come and learn some jigs or treat it - as an ex-Squire put it - as an "MoT for the Morris". We have some excellent tutors and musicians, who will offer something both for the expert and for those with little experience. Note that it's for dancers, we can't offer musicians 'playing for jigs' practice, but you can of course pick our musicians' brains.
Cost is the same as pre-Covid, a very reasonable £55 (£40 for under 21s and full time students) including good quality meals. However, the village hall is not allowing indoor camping. We have a little indoor camping available in the scout hut, where the priority will be the catering staff, but impecunious and / or young people can ask. There are reasonably-priced hotels and B&Bs not too far away. If your accommodation is on a B&B basis there will be a small discount for not taking breakfasts.
Contact Mike Bennett on jigsinstructional [at] themorrisring.org to reserve a place. Don't send any money now.
20 January 2023 to 22 January 2023
