Update on Carol’s teaching trip to Ghana

You may remember that Carol Mockett, one of Sarah's MJ crew members, is to teach English in Ghana soon and we held a fund-raising dance at Easter.  Just to let you know that she has managed to raise just over £1,000 to date, so thank you to all those people who kindly donated via the dance or sponsored walk.  She is leaving on Saturday, 5th July and returns at the end of the month, so she’ll be missing from our Wednesday lessons for the whole month.

She was kindly given lots of items to sell at a boot sale, which seemed too good to sell there, so on Saturday 21st June at the Town Hall dance we will be holding a raffle to raise a few extra ££s towards her total needed of £3,000!!  The items include a remote-controlled aeroplane, remote-controlled motorbike, and a wooden photo album. 

Your continued support would be gratefully received, please click here to see Carol and friends

Sarah's Modern Jive is in its 8th year and going from strength to strength.

Starting off with one class in Sept 2000 it has grown to three healthy friendly venues in the East Sussex area. We hold monthly dances at the beautiful Eastbourne Town Hall, monthly Workshops of varying levels, 3 Special Dances at the fabulous Winter Gardens, popularly known as 'Putting on the Ritz' and 3 Brighton Balls at The Hove Centre in Brighton as well as BritRock Independent Modern Jive Competition every October.

All venues have an attractive charm of their own, as well as excellent floors and ventilation. Staff and Crew Dancers are chosen for their kindness, willingness to help and smiley faces.
