How to Celebrate the Return of Strictly to Our Screens
It many mean that autumn is well and truly here (and Christmas isn’t too far away either), but seeing as Strictly Come Dancing is back on the TV, we don’t really mind too much. Along with GBBO, this show represents the true meaning of comfort telly, something that is as necessary to the British autumn as crumpets for tea and novelty hat and scarf sets. So to celebrate the Strictly launch show taking place this weekend, we thought we’d recommend a few ways you can celebrate by treating yourself to some more dance magic…
Give it a Go
The most obvious way of getting into dance is to, well, get into dance. But if the prospect of signing up to a local class seems a bit overwhelming, how to you get over this hurdle? Well, Virgin Experience Days voucher codes could have the answer. They currently offer a number of different packages and deals that let you give those dancing steps a try without committing to anything - in one lesson you might discover you’re a dancing diva or a dancing disaster, darling. And even if it’s the latter, as long as you’re enjoying it, then where’s the problem? Just keep dancing! Choose from single introductory lessons, dance experiences for two people or a short course of lessons. And they’ve even got belly dancing deals for those who are feeling a bit more adventurous.
Get Kitted Out
There’s nothing to make you feel more like a dancer than the full kit, and if you do decide to give dancing classes a whirl, Dance Direct promo codes can save you money on all the specialist gear you need, whether you want to try ballet or ballroom or something involving back flips. Take your pick of their shoes (jazz, tap, ballet and beyond), leotards and leggings for women, men and children and you could soon have the family kitted out in full Fame gear in no time. Perhaps you’ll even put together your very own production. Or perhaps not…
Go and See Some for Yourself
Loving dance doesn’t have to mean taking part, and once Strictly is in full-swing, you might be inspired to explore the art of dance even further by watching a live theatre show or two, but buying tickets shouldn’t have to cost the earth, and with Encore Tickets discount vouchers they certainly don’t. These offers provide savings on a wide choice of dance and ballet productions as well as West End shows. Their current selection includes Burn the Floor, The Nutcracker, The Last Tango, The Red Shoes and that old West End Favourite, Stomp if you fancy something a bit more contemporary.
So whether your love of Strictly Come Dancing consists of a just a good Saturday night in front of the TV, or the possession of the country’s largest collection of glitter balls, there are plenty of ways you can celebrate and show your love of dance to coincide with the new series. And before you know it, it will be Christmas again, the winner will have been announced and we’ll wonder where the autumn went...
