ADULTS and children are being urged to limber up for new dance classes, which are set to have Droitwich jumping.

Dance at 8, which already runs classes in Pershore, Worcester and Malvern, is opening up in the spa town.

Experienced tutors in salsa, ballroom, pop, Latin American, choreography, American swing and many other styles of dance will be holding sessions at Chawson First School.

The first classes, due to be held on Tuesday, January 14, are styled as "learn to dance like a pop star" lessons.

Boys and girls aged six to 14 are invited to attend the class which starts at 6.30pm. The sessions will run for eight weeks and cost £3 per class.

Also starting on the same night is an absolute beginners salsa class. It will run between 7.30 and 8.30pm and cost £3.

Classes are being led by Paul and Barbara Pritchard, who met while working on cruise ships.

Paul, of Lancashire, is a world champion dancer and qualified teacher, while Barbara, from America, has a degree in fashion design and has cruised the world as a ship hostess.
