Learn about The Golden Eagles and their followers

Welcome to the Golden Eagles Linedance Club, Andover. Our leader is called Debbie and she has been dancing since 1995, but only started teaching in September 2012.

We currently have two classes per week, one for beginners  on a Tuesday  and one for Improver/Easy Intermediate level dancers on a Wednesday.

During 2020 and part of 2021 due to lockdown we could not meet up for our Linedance classes so we went online on our website just to keep everyone dancing I am glad to say we are back dancing again now

We also attend regular weekend social events with live music at Chandlers Ford, Whitchurch, Basingstoke and Chawton.

As a group we also go away on Linedance Weekends where we get to put into practice the dances we learn in class. We also have the chance to dress up if there is a theme night (as you can see from the above photo of Debbie as a Cowgirl).

We have visited The Carrington Hotel Bournemouth, Durrant House Hotel Bideford, The Wessex Hotel Street, Toorak Hotel Torquay, Torbay Court Hotel Paignton, Victoria Hotel Torquay, Merton Hotel Jersey, Queens Hotel Bournemouth, Royal Beach Hotel Southsea, Cumberland Hotel Eastbourne and The Trouville Hotel on the Isle of Wight.

In 2024 we are booked for, The Victoria Hotel, Torquay, Devon on April 12-=15 2024, The Atlantic Hotel Weston Super Mare 10--13 May 2024, The Trouville Hotel on the Isle of Wight on October 11 – 14, 2024.  and The York House Hotel Eastbourne from 30 December for 4 days to see in the New Year.  It is possible we may add some more dates before next year why not join us?

As a club we have a group of followers called the GOlden Eagles. (Yes that is right we dropped the G from Golden to call them the Olden eagles). This is made up of the partners that do not dance but enjoy the music and the social side of the Club. They can usually be found at the bar putting the world to rights!

Linedancing is not as you normally see it portrayed on TV with thumbs in the belt loops and a lot of thigh slapping with people dressed in cowboy outfits. It’s enjoyed by people of all ages, you don’t need a partner and we also dance to all genres of music from rock ‘n’ roll, to country and even music from the Charts. So, if you know your left from your right, then you can do it.

We don’t take it too seriously and all you need to join in is a decent pair of shoes and a smile, although the smile is difficult when you are concentrating on the steps!
