Dance - Kerry will be running her usual Friday evening workshop in European dances, which will cover the dances played later by The AnglesClimax Ceilidh Band will be playing mostly ceilidh dances, with caller Peter Rees.
Kerry will also be giving a polska workshop on Saturday.  Then on Sunday, Katherine Soutar-Caddick, aka Kaheesha, will give a belly-dancing workshop.
In addition, we've listened to requests from our dancers - we'll be making space on Sunday afternoon for you to dance in the courtyard to the fabulous music of Arcadia - many Swedish and French dance tunes.

Workshops: There will be separate workshops for melodeon, piano accordion, fiddle and hurdy gurdy and a singing workshop.  We also have two group workshops, for any instrument. On Saturday, The Angles will take a bumper 2 hour session on French dance music, concentrating on how to get the "French" and the "dance" into French dance music.  The second half of this workshop will welcome dancers to come and enjoy!  On Sunday, Arcadia will lead a Swedish/English tunes workshop, again for any instrument.  And the superb Sille Ilves from Welsh/Estonian duo Sild will be taking the beginners/intermediate fiddle class on Saturday.

SESSIONS
There are loads of chances to sing or play.  On Saturday and Sunday at midday, there are "Come All Ye" sessions, organised like the folk club, i.e. everyone gets a chance to have a go.  There's also a Friday night session in the chapel run in a similar way and a "Big Sing" in the chapel early Sunday evening.  These sessions will be hosted by Carole Etherton and Andrew McKay.  If you just want to have a jam with others, there are lots of nooks and crannies around the site you are welcome to use, so long as you don't disturb the main concert area.  Owing to the nature of our site, most of these places require you to have a ticket.
If you can stay over another day, we have a post-festival session at The Greyhound Inn, Llanrhidian on Monday evening
