Norwich and Cambridge Early Dance Weekend 2020

A residential course at Belsey Bridge, Bungay, Suffolk

Norwich Historical Dance have had to regretfully cancel this very popular workshop.

Belsey Bridge Conference Centre have kindly confirmed that they will treat our weekend 17th – 19th April as being postponed to 2022 and will now take place on 1st – 3rd April 2022.

It is intended that the subject will be 18th/19th century dance and we hope that Jørgen Schou-Pedersen will be able to lead the course. (TBC)

Everyone can be paid a full refund if they wish. However, if you’d like to book for 2022 you might consider allowing NHD to keep either the full amount you’ve paid, or the full amount less £50 deposit. In either case, your 2022 place would be secured.

Please let Amanda know whether you’d like a full refund, full refund less £50, or no refund at all – thank you!
