Morris is a festive seasonal dance that dates back hundreds of years to the farming communities of the Cotswold Hills in Southern England. It’s boisterous, athletic, and colorful – a perfect way to celebrate the change of seasons!

This year, Apple Tree Morris is offering a free three-week series of open practices (workshops) for anyone interested in learning Morris Dancing. You don’t need experience, just enthusiasm. You should wear comfortable sneakers and clothing you can move in, and be ready for a workout.

The 2019 workshops take place on Thursdays at 7:15, February 21 and 28, and March 7, at the Sebastopol Community Center Youth Annex, Morris St., Sebastopol. Learn more about Apple Tree Morris at https://nbcds.org/morris.html, or contact Cyprian Stevens at 707-823-6925 (e-mail: cliff@kichu.com)
