About The Dancing
Although called many things; Ceilidh, Country Dance, Barn Dance, Ceili Dance, Square Dance, Set Dancing - one thing is certain, it's all traditional and how people would entertain themselves before TV and raves. We have a live band on stage to provide the music, and a "Dance Caller", who is expert at teaching you all the simple and fun moves. First we learn the dance by walking through it with the caller, then the band strike up, and we dance to the music. You don't need any experience, just willingness to have a go.
Cut A Shine Monthly Dances
Your monthly fix of endorphins inducing barn dance fun, dance and be silly like they used to do before electricity, TV and Netflix! We're excited to be hosting dances every month at The Round Chapel... why not come to all of them and become an expert! Discounted Pass for those that sign up to all 7 sessions.. email us joe@cutashine.co.uk
Inclusivity and Diversity

About The Dancing
Although called many things; Ceilidh, Country Dance, Barn Dance, Ceili Dance, Square Dance, Set Dancing - one thing is certain, it's all traditional and how people would entertain themselves before TV and raves. We have a live band on stage to provide the music, and a "Dance Caller", who is expert at teaching you all the simple and fun moves. First we learn the dance by walking through it with the caller, then the band strike up, and we dance to the music. You don't need any experience, just willingness to have a go.
Cut A Shine Monthly Dances
Your monthly fix of endorphins inducing barn dance fun, dance and be silly like they used to do before electricity, TV and Netflix! We're excited to be hosting dances every month at The Round Chapel... why not come to all of them and become an expert! Discounted Pass for those that sign up to all 7 sessions.. email us joe@cutashine.co.uk
Inclusivity and Diversity
Our dances are All Inclusive, regardless of age, gender, ability, ethnicity or sexual orientation. Although based largely on traditional European and American dance forms, we have tailored our dances to be non-heteronormative and involve everyone. We welcome members of the LGBTQ+ community.
