Molly Dancing Workshops

Welcome to our Molly Dancing Workshops, where you can immerse yourself in the vibrant tradition of Molly dancing from East Anglia. Led by Nicky Stockman, a seasoned instructor with over 20 years of experience in teaching Molly dancing and former BBC Radio Cambridgeshire folk show host, you will delve into the historical stories that have shaped these captivating traditions.


During the workshop, you will have the opportunity to participate in dancing traditional Molly dances, including the renowned broom dance, Birds a Building, and the College Hornpipe. Discover how Molly dancing has evolved to resonate with modern society and explore the innovative directions taken by local sides (dance teams).

Under the musical accompaniment of Kathryn Johnstone from KJ Folk Music, a skilled melodeon player and experienced Molly dancer with Pig Dyke Molly for the past decade, you will engage in a 2-hour experience that promises to be both educational and entertaining.

Whether you are looking to organize a corporate event or engage students in a unique cultural experience, our Molly dancing workshops offer a memorable and interactive way to connect with this rich heritage. Join us for a fun-filled session where you can even try your hand at recreating one of these historical dances as a group.
