Strictly Charity Trials - 21 & 28 June 2015

This event has now concluded.
Starts: 21 June 2015 at 19:00
Ends: 28 June 2015 at 21:00

NB - auditions are now being held on the 21st and 28th June at the Hogarth Health Club - between 7pm - 9pm! To register, email saskiadevito@googlemail.com

Although the main event will take place in several months time (28 November 2015 in The Park Club dome), we are now looking to select the dancers for this event, so they are ready to begin preliminary training with their selected Professional Dancer from September 2015.

The evening is for those who want to dance in front of over 1000+ friends and strangers - as well as for those who definitely DON'T want to compete but just want some fun!

As part of the fundraising, those who are chosen to dance MUST agree to complete the "Strictly Charity Programme*" which allows dancers to personally diarise time with their pro dancer. PLEASE NOTE: This means there are no excuses for those saying they cant commit!

So, whether you wish to take part or not, please join professional dancers and Strictly Charity Co-organisers, Viktoriya Wilton and Andrew Cuerden and the Club's management teams for some complimentary cocktails and some dancing at The Hogarth Health Club from 7pm on Sunday 21 and 28 June 2015.

Selection of dancers for "Strictly Charity" at The Park Club - 28 November 2015

During both evening at The Hogarth we will be taking details of those at the class and then the final decision of who dances with who is made after the event by Viktoriya and Andrew.

All monies raised from the evening will go to our nominated charity for 2015.

*"Strictly Charity Programme"

For those that wish to dance in our massive strictly charity evening on Sat 28 November, to ensure the quality of the evening for paying guests, and as part of the fundraising, the following programme stipulations must be agreed to:

• The contestant will pay a fee to cover the cost of the professional dancer by September 2015. This fee helps towards the cost of 10 one hour private coaching sessions with their professional dancer, costume(s), make up, hair, show dance group sessions
• The contestant will guarantee the purchase of 70 tickets at a minimum of £30 + booking fee each
• The contestant is committed to do at least 10 one hour private sessions at mutually agreed times with their professional dancer
• The contestant agrees to make at least two "GROUP SHOW DANCE" training sessions between mid September and 28 November 2015

What if I'm NOT chosen to compete or I really want to do dance classes at the Clubs?

For those that want to be involved in Strictly Charity but haven't been chosen or couldn't make the above trial events, Viktoriya Wilton's dance professionals will be staging Strictly Charity Dance Classes on Monday evenings in the Hogarth Bar from 8-9pm followed by social dancing from 9-10.30pm. Places can be paid for on a drop in basis (£12 per session) from The Hogarth Club Reception. This will be the first class that non members will be able to attend .

Those that attend these classes will be considered to be part of a special "CLASS SHOW DANCE" at the main Strictly Charity event.

If you have any queries regarding Strictly Charity, please don't hesitate to contact Tim Slater at tim@theparkclub.co.uk.

KEEP DANCING!
