Through creative activity and creative thinking, they stimulate holistic health benefits for individuals and animate the many local community hall venues that may otherwise be empty.<\/p>\n<p>Led by experienced and friendly dance teacher Declan, the sessions are an opportunity to get out and take part in something fun with others. These free events are an excellent way to combat loneliness, something that many older people have reported feeling regularly since the Covid-19 lockdowns. Tea and coffee will be served afterwards, giving more opportunity to socialise and chat.<span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>Knockingall Community Centre, Piercestown Y35EP2V &#8211; Friday 5th of April 14:00 to 15:00\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Coolcotts Community Centre Wexford Y35HV07 &#8211; Monday 8th of April 14:00 to 15:00\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Woodbine Community Centre New Ross Y35ET89 &#8211; Tuesday 9th of April 14:00 to 15:00\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Christchurch Old School, Gorey, Y25XH11 &#8211; Wednesday 10th of April 14:00 to 15:00\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Templeshannon Community Centre Enniscorthy Y21T8K8 &#8211; Thursday 11th\u00a0of April 14:00 to 15:00\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":29787,"template":"","class_list":["post-29786","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Social Dancing Classes - Creative Ireland Programme<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"A series of social dancing classes will bring older people in our community together to improve wellbeing and social interaction through movement.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/social-dancing-classes\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Social Dancing Classes - Creative Ireland Programme\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A series of social dancing classes will bring older people in our community together to improve wellbeing and social interaction through movement.
