Dorchester Corn Exchange
Dorchester's premier venue! Our classes are usually held in the upstairs Town Hall, a large space with a wooden floor. Occasionally we use the downstairs main hall (called the Corn Exchange) with its large sprung wooden dance floor and coloured dance floor lighting.
There is a brand new licensed bar/cafe, and nearby on-road parking and car parks.
The Corn Exchange building dates from the mid-nineteenth century and has plenty of character which adds to the dancing experience!
The use of talcum powder etc on the dance floor is prohibited.
We are a hirer of the space and do not own or operate the building.

Weekly Leroc dance classes for adults are held at the Corn Exchange on Tuesday evenings. There is a licensed bar and a good-sized wooden dance floor. Friendly atmosphere too!
Complete beginners - even those with two left feet - are welcome! Just turn up on any Tuesday evening, with or without a partner, ready for 8pm. The cost of admission covers the whole session, including all classes, beginner coaching and practice/freestyle dancing to music.
The class has been running since 19-May-1998 and is taught by James Barwick.
The class also attracts dancers from Weymouth, Bridport, Poole, Swanage, Wareham, Blandford Forum, Beaminster and Isle of Portland.
