   \n\n
  The Morris Ring invites you to participate in the 41st Jigs
  Instructional and Cotswold Morris Workshop\, under the
  direction of Geoff Jerram of Winchester Morris Men. It’s a
  unique experience for just about every Morris dancer out there:
  young or old\, newly launched or hugely experienced. You’ve
  never been before? Read on\, read on...\n\n
  This weekend of high-quality dance coaching will give depth to
  your understanding and performance of the Cotswold Morris in
  general and the rich variety of its jigs in particular. The
  highly experienced\, friendly teachers draw upon a contrasting
  selection of traditional jigs as a convenient vehicle for
  instruction\, but the skills you acquire are equally applicable
  to dancing in sets of six or eight. Not only will your improved
  dancing afford a heightened personal sense of gratification\,
  but your side’s overall standard of presentation will almost
  certainly benefit from your enhanced verve\, vigour and
  vivacity [T&Cs apply].\n\n
  And for devotees of the Cotswold Jig\, it’s an opportunity to
  socialise with like-minded practitioners\, refine your artistry
  and challenge yourself by tackling some of the epic
  single-handers under masterful guidance.\n\n
  Places are strictly limited\, so sign up pronto via the online
  form.\n\n
  Who’s it for?\n\n
  \n\n
  The novice dancer: you’ve conquered the double-step and now
  you’re looking to make even more progress by studying with
  the pros. Getting to grips with a jig or two will build your
  self-assurance\, range and technique\, and you’ll return to
  your own club with a new range of accomplishments.\n\n
  The seasoned campaigner: you’ll come away with the confidence
  to dance jigs\, but even if you choose never to perform solo\,
  your dance technique will get a thorough overhaul. Think
  Morris\, think MOT!\n\n
  The advanced practitioner: you know (or think you know) all the
  tricks\, but you’d really like to bring out your absolute
  best – and you’d love to learn some great jigs to showcase
  your expertise.\n\n
  \n\n
  This event offers parallel streams for improver and advanced
  participant alike\, plus sessions for less experienced
  dancers. It all happens in Sutton Bonington (between
  Loughborough and Derby).\n\n
  We offer\n\n
  \n\n
  EXPERT and PATIENT instruction\n\n
  COSY indoor camping (including showers)\n\n
  REALLY GOOD food from Friday supper to Sunday lunch\n\n
  DELICIOUS beer for the Feast\n\n
  CONVIVIAL company and a PUB with an abundance of MUSIC and
  SONG.\n\n
  \n\n
  The cost of this astonishing event is £55 per person (£40 if
  under 19). However\, pay before midnight on January12th and
  the cost will be just £50! What's more\, a £10 “cash
  back” is available if you’ve never participated in a
  Morris Ring Jigs Instructional\, with £5 on offer if you’ve
  attended that event just once before.\n\n
  (Apply after the event via your Morris Ring side’s bagman\;
  you must pay the full fee at the time of booking.)\n\n
  Places are strictly limited\, so sign up pronto via the online
  form.\n\n
  You can also book through your side’s Bagman.\n\n
  The Occasional Bagman\, Tony Foard\, will be pleased to answer
  your questions (0151 334 4566 or jigsinstructional [at]
  themorrisring.org). We look forward to welcoming you to this
  unsurpassed adventure!\n\n
