Doe Demure Does Burlesque!

Get your heels out ladies! Doe Demure, performer, instructor and Skytribe Dance Studio owner will be leading us through an interactive dance class at our monthly tonight!  She will take us through various walks, routines and burlesque pin-up poses.

A great night was had by all at the MHWI Cocktail Evening held at the Waterfront Restaurant, Market Harborough on Wednesday, 8th November 2017.     Members were shown how to make and sample (of course) a variety of cocktails, as well as enjoying delicious platters of food.

Also, welcome to our recently elected President, Anne Clayton, shown below.   It’s great to see that Anne is quickly developing a taste for her new role!
