~And the Beat Goes On~

with Sue Rickards & Angela Griffiths

And The Beat Goes On is an extraordinary group full of unique, connecting and ordinary people.

We dance, explore and learn together.

We build our own community, over and over, changing, adapting, alive and real; with all our human kindness, strangeness and quirks, with all our silliness and seriousness.

We learn to include ourselves and each other and grow as individuals at the same time.

We become more spontaneous and honest, more real and more responsible. And we have plenty of fun as we go.

A ‘closed’ group that welcomes newcomers at the beginning of each term.

Next term begins January 2026. See below

And The Beat Goes On has been running since 2003.

Apparently it is the longest-running on-going dance group in the whole of Europe!

It is a closed group to which newcomers are welcomed at the beginning of each term.

We ask for a minimum commitment of two terms to allow time for new participants to arrive and to have a sense of continuity for the group.

“I got a lot more than I bargained for! I thought I was looking for a home base to give me a sense of anchoring in my dance. What I'm being offered is a community and such a skilled one.” Sarah

‘A workshop with Sue is a good and safe place to be. It is safe to visit my dark, painful, silly, peculiar, joyful, embarrassing corners. There is no judgement, just tons of love and encouragement to include them all.’
