ENJOY your own version of Strictly Come Dancing and get fit at the same time by joining in with all kinds of dance classes on offer locally.

Paul Pritchard from Pershore runs the Dance at 8 dance classes which started at Pershore's Number 8 arts centre and have now spread to other venues.

There are courses available for adults and children and for all types of dance, always incorporating new moves and crazes. And there is also the chance to enjoy an evening with the Strictly Come Dancing stars.

The new term is starting soon and for adults a new class is setting up at Wulstan Hall in Pershore. Havana Latin Dancing - For Absolute Beginners is sure to set temperatures rising as a little Cuban sprit heads for English springtime.

It starts tomorrow from 7.30pm and runs for seven weeks at £3.50 per week.

A special event is being staged at Malvern Theatres on Sunday when there will be the chance to see the stars from Strictly Come Dancing, Anton du Beke and Erin Boag. This is a ticket only black tie event starting at 7pm.

Video Pop Stars classes have always been a particularly popular Dance at 8 treat and now adults are able to join in.

Five to 14-year-olds can be the stars of the school discos with the children's lessons which are held in Pershore, Worcester and Malvern.
