 easure of moving and the pleasure of using your body is\, I think\, maybe 
 the main point. And the the pleasure of dancing with somebody in an unplan

 o invent.” - Steve Paxton\n\nDates: Wednesdays From 11th january to 22nd
  February\nTime: 7.15 - 9.15pm\nVenue: The Willow Studio\, St Werburghs Pr
