Arthouse Jersey Presents Dancing in the Park!
NEXT UP SALSA WITH VERONICA FULTON, SAT 16 July
Tickets available via ArtHouse Jersey’s Eventbrite
ArtHouse Jersey is pleased to present the latest in their Dancing in the Park series- Salsa with Veronica Fulton. Taking place at Howard Davis Park on Saturday 16 July from 5:30 to 8:30pm. Each Dancing in the Park session features a different genre of social dance and is prefaced by an hour-long intro class, followed by two hours of music and dancing. The upcoming session will be an intro to salsa taught by Veronica Fulton with music by DJ Stefunk.
ABOUT DANCING IN THE PARK
Dancing in the Park consists of dance lessons and open dances hosted in Howard Davis Park, occurring once every two weeks in July and August.
Almost everyone loves to dance, but many feel shy about letting loose when they think they do not know what to do. Learning a few basic steps can make people feel secure enough to explore their own sense of movement and rhythm and give them the freedom to rediscover the joy of dancing like no one is watching.
Social dance is about so much more than simply dancing. Whether it be lindy hop, salsa, shuffle or jive, it is an exciting way of staying fit, meeting new people, challenging yourself, finding a creative outlet, and maybe even discovering a talent that you may not have known you had.
SALSA TEACHER VERONICA FULTON
The upcoming Salsa session will be taught by Veronica Fulton who trained as a technical dancer and has worked as a professional freelance performer for ten years. Veronica is also passionate about fitness and founded Fulton Foundations in 2020. She is a qualified Pilates Instructor with a Level 3 Diploma in Anatomy and Physiology.
Director of ArtHouse Jersey, Tom Dingle, said “We’re delighted to be able to offer these fun and relaxed summertime events for people in Jersey. Having spent the past couple of years discouraged from this type of interaction, Dancing in the Park offers a welcome opportunity for people to learn or improve their technique with talented tutors from some of the most popular styles of dance. The concept of social dancing that follows the lesson is one that allows participants the chance to relax and show off the skills they’ve acquired in a fun and encouraging setting. Dancing amongst the backdrop of the stunning Howard David Park to specially curated DJs and bands on a warm summer evening - what’s not to like!?”
Dancing in the Park is hosted by dancer Carolyn Rose Ramsey. The inaugural event last week focused on the Lindy Hop and sold out within 48 hours. With that in mind we encourage people who’d like to attend to register quickly to avoid disappointment. ArtHouse Jersey will soon be releasing details of the remaining Dancing in the Park events for this summer so keep an eye out on arthousejersey.je and the arts charity’s social media channels for more information.
