ABBOTSWOOD (Romsey) Women’s Institute (WI) is looking forward to embracing the spirit of Bollywood at the next monthly meeting.

Members of Abbotswood WI in Romsey will be trying the art of Bollywood dancing at their next meeting on October 11, starting at 7.30pm.

An interactive demonstration, led by Bollywood dance expert Hannah Murphy, will demonstrate the moves and encourage the ladies to get up and dance. Hannah previously ran a hula hooping evening for the WI which was commended a great success and it’s hoped that the dance trial proves to be just as popular.
