The 2020 pandemic has hit all dance activity hard. The SDCCGB is fully aware of the implications and has produced along with the BAASDC, a number of publications for public consumption, to assist clubs leaders in restarting square and round dancing. Where necessary guidance has been sought from various UK Government Departments sources and from the activities governing bodies.

Recruiting Dancers
A new imitative is to take dancing into the home. Anyone can have a go, all four of the core rhythms are included. The hope is it will encourage new dancers to take up the activity.
We will also publish ideas and articles on Recruiting Dancers and positive results... what worked for you or someone you know.
The first ideas are some intended to raise the profile of Square and Round Dancing here in Great Britain. In conjunction with the FFT, Kevin Lovell has furnished some simple handouts to pass along to dancers who have participated in a hoedown and who would like more information on the activity. He has also furnished some handouts for people who have heard of or seen a demonstration of Square Dancing or Round Dancing and are interested in finding out more about the activity. These handouts can be downloaded from here
