SUMMARY:Joint Morris Organisations' Day of Dance 2025 (Stockport)
DESCRIPTION:Joint Morris Organisations’ Day of Dance 2025 (Stockport)\n \n  \n  \n  \nThe JMO National Day of Dance is a collaborative event organised in turn by one of the three morris organisations in the UK – The Morris Federation\, The Morris Ring\, and Open Morris. The day of dance is a celebration of morris and traditional dancing held annually at a different location around the UK. \nIn 2025 the day of dance is on Saturday 26th April 2025 in Stockport\, Greater Manchester\, hosted by Adlington Morris Men on behalf of the Morris Ring. \n‘Totally Stockport’ have created a facebook event for the public: A Day of Dance for Stockport (1000 Morris Dancers) on Facebook \n\nBookings closed; contact the organisers in case there are spare places. \n\nParticipants – all your info in one place\nHere you can find all the info you need in one place: https://linktr.ee/jmo2025 \nThis includes the Participants’ Information Booklet\, how to get Saturday evening Ceilidh tickets\, and more. \nHere’s the JMO Stockport Leaflet [PDF] available on the day: \n \n\n\nMore details\nAdlington Morris Men sent us the following details: \nAdlington Morris Men are already hard at work organising what’s promising to be the biggest and best JMO yet.  The local council\, shops and businesses are all pulling together to organise a full day and evening of events\, and your side is invited to be part of it! \n\n\nFrom Morris-themed family craft activities to folky fringe events\, the whole of the town centre will be filled with the sound of bells throughout the day\, before giving way to an absolutely free ceilidh afterparty with live band\, pop-up craft beer bar and street food stalls – with ticket priority given to you! \n\n\nWe’re handily located on major railway routes and three motorways\, so getting here couldn’t be easier. \n\n\nParking \nCentral Stockport has ample parking for cars\, but all of these are at a cost.  Alternatively\, a free Park and Ride car park (without height restrictions) can be found in Hazel Grove\, a 15 minute £2 bus ride from the town centre. \nAccommodation \n\nIndoor camping is in the rather plush 1st Bramhall Scout HQ\, charging just enough to cover our costs.  It’s warm and has a shower\, is right by Bramhall station (10 minutes from Stockport) and has free parking.  Let us know if your side might like a space or six.\nHappy Valley Campers have agreed to host any tents and motorhomes you might like to bring\, and are an easy ten minute bus ride from central Stockport. It’s a turn-up-and-pay affair at £10 pppn.\nIf any of your side would like to stay at the Holiday Inn Express at the discounted B&B rate of £129 per room per night (a saving of £25 off the usual)\, this needs to booked directly.  Call the hotel on 0161 359 6363 and ask to speak to Hannah Marshall before the end of December to secure your room.\n\n  \nAssembly and Sign-in \nPlease ensure a member of your side signs in at the Welcome Desk in Viaduct park between 9.30 and 10.00 and receives your Welcome Pack\, and ensure that your side is all present and correct by 10.00.  After a welcome at 10:15 from your hosts\, Adlington Morris Men\, the Morris Ring\, and (if she is able to attend) the Mayor of Stockport\, please then assemble your side at your allocated position\, referring to the signage around the park\, ready for the short parade through Merseyway (one of Stockport’s main thoroughfares) and up to the Marketplace (including a short but fairly steep hill\, but with lift access available.  From there\, sides will disperse to their first performance locations of the day. \n\n\nBeer \nWe’re working with The Baker’s Vaults\, an historic pub in Stockport\, to put a special JMO DoD beer on tap.  The trouble is that it doesn’t have a name yet – answers on a postcard/email. \nLunchtime music session \nAt lunch\, 13:00-15:00\, we’ll be organising a lunchtime music session in case you really haven’t heard enough tunes already. \nEvening Ceilidh – free \nIn the evening\, there will be a totally free ceilidh in the historic St Mary’s Church overlooking Stockport marketplace; the band and caller are booked\, as is the bar\, so all we need is you! Doors open 19:00\, ceilidh 19:30-22:45.  Attendance at the ceilidh is free but\, in order to manage numbers\, places must be booked.  Details of this will be sent out closer to the time.  There will be a bar\, and food available to buy throughout the evening. \nOther things in the pipeline \nShire horses… children’s crafts… street food… thousands of stickers… the customary leather badges… workshops…  The list is growing! \nScratch Side(s) \nWe’ve been contacted by a few people whose sides haven’t quite got the numbers to dance out at the JMO DoD\, but would really like to join anyway.  We’re therefore organising a venue for a scratch side (or perhaps multiple\, depending on numbers and traditions) to practise in the morning before dancing out after lunch.  If you’re interested\, drop us an email to jmo2025@adlingtonmorrismen.com and we’ll be in touch. \nRegister your side/team \n\n\nBookings closed; contact the organisers in case there are spare places.  If you’re not yet signed up and would like to take part\, please email jmo2025@adlingtonmorrismen.com .  JMO Day of Dance 2025 Registration \n\n\nWe are in touch with registered sides with more details\, but if you want to get in touch please email jmo2025@adlingtonmorrismen.com.  Here’s to 2025 in Stockport! \n#JMOSTOCKPORT #JMO2025 \nWho will be performing where and when?\nSee the Participants’ Information Booklet at: https://linktr.ee/jmo2025 \nHere’s the latest list of teams (51 teams as at 21st April). \nOrganisation key: MR = Morris Ring\, OM = Open Morris\, MF = Morris Federation\n \n\n\n\nTeam\nDanceStyle\nLocation\nWeb site\nTeam Hashtag\nOrg\n\n\nAdlington Morris Men\nCotswold\nStockport\, Greater Manchester\nhttps://adlingtonmorrismen.com/\n–\nMR\, MF\n\n\nBedcote Morris\nCotswold\nStourbridge\, West Midlands\nhttps://bedcote.com/\n–\nOM\n\n\nBlackstone Edge Rapper\nRapper\nRochdale\, Greater Manchester\nBlackstone Edge on Facebook\n–\nMF\n\n\nBirmingham Rapper\nRapper\nBirmingham\, West Midlands\nBirmingham Rapper on Facebook\n\nOM\n\n\nBollin Morris\nBorder\nLymm\, Cheshire\nhttps://bollinmorris.org/\n–\nOM\n\n\nCadi Ha Morris\nCotswold\nBangor\, Wales\nCadi Ha on Facebook\n–\nOM\n\n\nChapel-en-le-Frith Morris\nCotswold\nChapel-en-le-Frith\, Derbyshire\nhttps://chapelmorris.org/\n–\nMR\n\n\nChorlton Cloghoppers\nStep\nChorleton\, Greater Manchester\nChorlton Cloghoppers on Facebook\n–\nOM\n\n\nClerical Error Morris Dancers\nBorder\nFlintshire\, Wales\nClerical Error on Facebook\n#ClericalErrorMorris\nMF\n\n\nDomesday Morris\nBorder\nStoke-on-Trent\, Staffordshire\nDomesday Morris on Facebook\n#DomesdayMorris\nMF\n\n\nEarl of Stamford Morris\nCotswold\nWarrington\, Cheshire\nwww.earlofstamford.org.uk\n–\nOM\n\n\nFiddle ‘n’ Feet\nAppalachian\nShipley\, West Yorkshire\nFiddle ‘n’ Feet on Facebook\n–\nMF\n\n\nFidler’s Fancy Morris\nNorth West\nStockport\, Greater Manchester\nhttps://fidlersfancy.weebly.com/\n–\nMF\n\n\nFosbrooks Folk Education Trust\nClog Step\nStockport\, Greater Manchester\nFosbrooks on Facebook\n–\nNone\n\n\nFOXS Morris\nBorder\nCookley\, Worcestershire\nhttps://foxsmorris.blogspot.com/\n–\nOM\n\n\nGreen Man Morris\nBorder\nNantwich\, Cheshire\nwww.greenmanmorris.org\n–\nOM\n\n\nHoylake Border Morris\nBorder\nHoylake\, Merseyside\nHoylake Morris on Facebook\n–\nOM\n\n\nIronmen\nBorder\nTelford\, Shropshire\nhttps://www.imsg.org.uk/\n–\nMF\n\n\nJockey Morris\nCotswold\nBirmingham\, West Midlands\nhttp://www.jockeymorris.org.uk/\n–\nMR\n\n\nKinnerton Morris Men\nCotswold\nChester\, Cheshire\nhttp://www.kinnertonmorris.com\n–\nMR\n\n\nKitchen Taps Appalachian\nAppalachian\nOtley\, West Yorkshire\nKitchen Taps on Facebook\n–\nOM\n\n\nKnights of King Ina\nCotswold jigs\nLangport\, Somerset\nhttps://kingina.uk/\n#KnightsofKingIna\nMF\n\n\nLeek Morris\nCotswold\, Border\nLeek\, Staffordshire\nhttps://leekmorris.my-free.website/\n#LeekMorris\nMF\n\n\nLizzie Dripping\nCotswold\nSheffield\, South Yorkshire\nLizzie Dripping on Facebook\n–\nMF\n\n\nMaltby Sword Dancers\nLongsword;

SUMMARY:Morris Ring Jigs Instructional 2024 (Sutton Bonington\, near Nottingham)
DESCRIPTION:Morris Ring Jigs Instructional 2024 (Sutton Bonington\, near Nottingham)\nA Morris Ring event.  Open to all members of teams from the Morris Ring\, Morris Federation\, Open Morris\, or independent. \nThis year it will be for a single day\, in the usual venue\, Sutton Bonington near Nottingham\, on Saturday 20th January. We’ll get in as much of the curriculum as possible from the previous weekend events\, so expect it to be quite a long day. Put the effort in and we guarantee to improve your dancing. \nYou need to be comfortable dancing set dances from at least one Cotswold tradition. The sessions are as much about dancing well as about dancing jigs\, so one frequent attendee refers to it as “an MoT for my Morris”. \nThe day will start at 0930\, with breakfast from 0830\, and end with a meal – not a Feast – so that you can get on the road at about 1930. If you’re travelling from further afield there should be very limited indoor camping available (it is explicitly forbidden in the main hall) or there are cheap hotels not far away at East Midlands airport. \nBOOKINGS OPEN!  Cost is expected to be around £30 including all meals. If you’re interested email jigsinstructional@themorrisring.org and we’ll send more details and an application form. Entries don’t have to be through sides\, just mention your side (or one of them).

SUMMARY:Joint Morris Organisations' Virtual Day of Dance 2021 (LIVE on Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:Joint Morris Organisations’ Virtual Day of Dance 2021\nThe JMO Day of Dance is a collaborative event organised in turn by one of the three morris organisations in the UK – The Morris Federation\, The Morris Ring\, and Open Morris. The day of dance is a celebration of morris and traditional dancing held annually at a different location around the UK. \nIn 2021 it will be a little different.  It will be held online over Zoom with all 3 organisations hosting. \n\nThere will be 2 streams with separate Zoom links: In the ‘Virtual Pub’ 10:00-15:00 Morris Music Sessions. In the ‘Virtual Dance Tent’ 10:00-16:00 Dance Workshops then 16:00-17:00 Massed Dancing.  Scroll to the bottom of the page to Register. \n\nProgramme\nThere will be 2 streams with 2 separate Zoom links:\nIn the ‘Virtual Pub’ – Morris Music Session 11:00-15:00\nCome and play all your favourite Morris and dance tunes with our experienced session leaders: \n– 11:00-12:00 Sarah & Tom Sennett\n– 12:00-13:00 Emma & Jon Meville\n– 13:00-14:00 Sel Adamu & Ben Potton\n– 14:00-15:00 Sarah Matthews & Doug Eunson \nIn the ‘Virtual Dance Tent’ – Dance Workshops 10:00-16:00\nHave a go at a new dance\, or even a new dance style\, in these workshops run by experienced tutors.  Please wear comfy supportive shoes e.g. trainers and make sure you have enough space to dance in\, with no trip hazards and no breakable objects or lampshades nearby! \n– 10:00-11:15 ‘Bacca Pipes’ solo dance – Rachel Cole-Wilkin\, Belles of London City \nFor anyone with dance experience\, especially Molly\, Border and Cotswold – variations for all experience levels will be taught\, using figures from the Ascot-Under-Wychwood style.  The music will be Bacca Pipes (Headington) played and recorded by David Pope (also of Belles) on Melodeon. “Bacca” is short for tobacco and the pipes are the long\, fragile\, clay\, churchwarden pipe.  You will need 2 ‘Pipes’ to dance over\, e.g. wooden spoons\, ties\, Harry Potter wands\, rolled up morris hankies\, or even tape marks (Health & Safety note: please make sure that the items are not breakable and will not cause you injury should you step on them!).  Rachel is a member of The Belles of London City\, assistant morris dance tutor at EFDSS\, and has previously danced with Sharp Morris in London and Berkeley Morris in California. \n– 11:30-13:00 ‘The Celebration’ North West solo dance – John Earnshaw\, Wakefield Morris \nFor experienced North West Dancers who know how to polka/rant.  This dance includes a quickly-changing sequence of walks\, polkas/rants and kicks.  Bring 2 short sticks (or wooden spoons).  John wrote The Celebration in 2008 to give Wakefield Morris an option for when low numbers turned out\, and it can be performed for one or more dancers.  It contains many different North West steps and moves borrowed from other dances or created for variety. The music used will be The Gallopede\, played and recorded by Liam Parker of White Rose and Wakefield Morris. \n– 13:30-14:30 ‘Mrs Marhoff’s Single Hornpipe’ Clog Stepping routine (aka ‘The Sunderland Hornpipe’) – Toby Bennett\,  English Step & Clog Dance \nFor beginners who know how to shuffle\, and also more experienced dancers.  You will need a wooden or hard surface\, and preferably wear clogs (otherwise\, hard soled shoes).  Toby Bennett learned this dance from Mrs Marhoff herself; it’s a short dance and not particularly complicated but there are some lovely details which are easily lost\, so we’ll learn it how Mrs Marhoff taught it – and she was very particular!  Toby started clog dancing at University\, and was lucky enough to do classes with some of the greats including Sam Sherry\, Pat Tracey and Mrs Marhoff. He won the Westmorland Clog Dance Championship and Stepping Contest at the original Dancing England. Toby later trained professionally and worked as a dancer and dance educator for many years in various forms of dance\, and now focuses on clog step dancing.  He performs solo\, with folk band Stepling\, and runs clog dance classes in Derbyshire.\n \n– 14:45-15:45 ‘Over the Hills’ Jig\, Oddington style (Cotswold) – Ollie Simons\, musician Matt Simons\, Peterborough Morris \nFor anyone with previous Cotswold experience of any tradition\, and beginners are also welcome – the instructor will aim to support all levels of ability.  Bring hankies or something to wave about\, and wear shoes with good support\, which are suitable to hop about in. Ollie invites people to take the jig back to their clubs and make it their own. We will also touch upon how to include the musician into the performance and use the area for your advantage. Ollie has been dancing the Morris for 10 years and has around 6 years of experience teaching various styles and traditions to people of different ages and abilities. Ollie and Matt are both members of Peterborough Morris and several other sides.  \nIn the ‘Virtual Dance Tent’ – Massed Dancing 16:00-17:00\nMassed Dancing featuring the dances we have done in the workshops (*)\, plus a few more including old favourites.  Running order is: \nCircassian Circle at the JMO day of dance in York\, 2016\n– ‘Bacca Pipes’ – solo dance (*)\n– ‘The Celebration’ – North West solo dance (*)\n– ‘Mrs Marhoff’s Single Hornpipe’ – Clog Stepping Routine (*)\n– ‘East Acton’ – Border (taught on the day)\n– ‘Waiting for the Vaccine’ – Border solo dance (from a recent MF workshop)\n– ‘Over the Hills’ Oddington style – Cotswold jig (*)\n– ‘Princess Royal’ – Cotswold jig (in a tradition of your choice)\n– ‘Shepherds Hey’ – Cotswold\n– ‘Bonny Green’ – Cotswold \nTo Register\nPlease complete this online form: Register for the JMO Day of Dance 2021; you will receive a confirmation email immediately (check your spam/junk/promotions folder!).  We will send you the Zoom links a couple of days before the event.  Open to anyone\, especially members of teams in the JMO – The Morris Federation\, The Morris Ring\, and Open Morris. \nOptional Donations\nIf you enjoy this event\, then it would be wonderful if you could send a donation\, small or large\, to … a charity of your choice.
