Join our New English Country Dancing Group!

Group of the Month
English Country Dancing
Would you like to enjoy good company and jolly music along with the chance to dance the beautiful, rich and diverse variety of "English" country dances?
The NEW English Country Dancing Group focuses on traditional and modern English "Country" and “Playford”-style dances including those that are typical of the Georgian and Regency period and often feature in costume dramas of the Jane Austen era.  
You don't need to come with a partner. Singles of both sexes are welcome, as we mix and change partners during the dancing.  For more information, click English Country Dancing to go to their webpage.
The u3a is an international movement of locally-run interest groups for people no longer in full-time employment and have reached their ‘third age’, a time to keep minds and bodies alert and active.  The groups provide a wide range of opportunities for members explore new ideas, skills and activities together

The Dorchester and District u3a is one of the larger u3as in the United Kingdom. This means that we are able to offer a very wide range of activities. Members receive a printed newsletter three times a year which is packed with useful information and which complements this website. 
We are located in Dorchester, the County Town of Dorset in the south of England. The town is surrounded by beautiful countryside close to the Jurassic Coast UNESCO World Heritage Site.
