Live Circle Dance with Brian Steere

Live Circle Dance

Inviting me to bring a Livingcircle dance day
or session in your locality

     You may either invite me yourself or suggest that your local dance teacher(s) invite me. What does ‘invite me’ entail?

• Agreeing a booking of a suitable venue on a mutually convenient date and running at agreed times. (I am willing to pay up front.)

• A willingness to communicate and publicise the event ie: distribute and post some flyers and publicise by word of mouth.

• Being the one who negotiates with the Hall caretaker/key holder so that the hall is open and ready and likewise at the end the hall is restored as required (ie tidy and locked). Obviously we circle dancers don’t generally make a mess and are all also willing to put things back if needed so this shouldn’t be onerous but just means being the first and last person to arrive and leave.

     I take any risk or benefit financially. The underlying reality for me is a living relationship. If only a small group are willing to join with me in dance then I stilll share wholeness without any sense of lack. But I do incur travel expenses and devote my self in growing musical resources and so I welcome and am grateful to find my needs met.

     I realize that until dancers have experienced my sharing the dance I am an ‘unknown’ and so I am willing to respond to invitation and grow the connection over time. I have a few examples of myself singing (at home) on the Resources page - but I am much more alive in relationship than recording. My love and delight in sharing the music and dance is simple, clear and present. My site may give clues to the approach I take but really it is a relationship into which we open and the quality of what is discovered in that shared purpose is what I mean by using the word ‘living’.

     No one need not come if money is the only impediment as the fees are an asking guide - but to set a low value can mean dancers bring less committment to the event.

     I ask for a fee per person which could be anything from £5 through to £25 depending on the time span of the event. I prefer an event which is long enough to include a shared meal but that isnt a stipulation.

     The invitee, is not required to be ‘responsible’ beyond any simple procedures above. It is my desire that they be free to simply enjoy the day and drink and share fof the experience.
