Mo Waddington Barn Dance Caller

If you are planning a family party, or a fundraising event why not have a Barn Dance, Ceilidh, or Hoe-Down? This is fun for all ages from 7 - 77, and for those who have never danced before as well as experienced dancers. Mo chooses a programme to suit your group, then explains the dances with a practice 'walk through' and a reminder as the music plays. Mo works with various musicians, and will put you in touch with a group that suits your preferences and budget. One of the bands she works with is The Family Band.
