Join us on Saturday 7th March for a special Let’s Dance Taster Day
As part of the national Let’s Dance Campaign, we’re teaming up with our fantastic local dance teachers to offer a full day of free taster sessions at YMCA Cornwall covering everything from ballet to qigong, tai chi, line dancing and more.
Each session will be 45 minutes long, followed by a 15‑minute break so participants can reset, rest, and get ready for the next activity. Refreshments are available in our coffee shop.
