We have heard that there are a few athletes going up to nationals at Labour Weekend and we wanted to show support for Nelson competitors by holding a competition just proir so they would have a run through. No need to worry, we've still got plenty of events for everyone else.
The Events List can be found under the events tab at the top of the page.
This was a sensational success and has led to the committee deciding to running a further competition later in the year.
The results can be found under the events tab at the top of the page.
This year's annual ball was once again enjoyed by a good number of dancers. It was another wonderful evening of dancing and so nice to see everyone in formal dress enjoying the great music and delicious supper. We were able to make another substantial donation from the proceeds of the Ball to the Nelson Hospice.
Thanks to our photographer David Chadwick who once again donated his time and took some great photos
The ball is becoming a feature of the Nelson dancesport scene - maybe you would like to join us next year?
