Way of the Wyrd
Home : Loughborough LeicestershireDance Style : BorderWe are a mixed - some say very mixed up - border Morris side from Loughborough Leicestershire.
We wear disparate styles of tatters in purple black and silver with faces painted as some form of disguise.
Our dance style is exuberant with sticks and the occasional hanky! Dances are based on the traditional border style however we have written some of our own with a focus on the life and history of Loughborough. Others we have been gifted or have based upon other dances such as the Loughborough Brush dance a Molly version paying homage to the local Brush factory.
Our music comprises accordions fiddles drums whistles bodhran and washboards.
We practice 7 - 9pm on Sunday evenings (when we are not out and about) at All Saints Thorpe Acre with Dishley Church Hall, Thorpe Acre Road, Loughborough. Dancers, have a go dancers and musicians welcome. Contact Jill on email - info@wayofthewyrd.co.uk or on Facebook - Way of the Wyrd Appreciation Association.
