KEEN movers and shakers in Pershore have the chance to get into shape while learning some new dance moves as a new class starts in the town.

Dance company Dance at Eight is launching its Salsa and Merengue Dancing for Absolute Beginners class on Friday, October 21, at 7.30pm.

The sessions - which run weekly for nine weeks - are being hosted at Wulfstan Hall in Priest Lane, Pershore, and combine the fiery and fun moves of salsa dancing with the Caribbean-style, sassy moves of merengue dancing.

People of all ages are welcome to join, both singles and couples, and no previous dance experience is necessary.
