What's your name?
Caroline Allsop

What's your fun on a shoestring idea?
Line dancing

cowgirl
It's great for wannabe cowboys and cowgirls!

Tell us about it:
Yes i know it sounds sad and cowboys and stuff but it really is nothing like that... you get to spend usually about 3 hours with friendly people, get to burn off all that chocolate and its even set in a club so drinks are cheap... all this costs just £3!

What do you enjoy the most?
Good way to meet people. Excellent way to lose weight and it is so much fun - you can laugh at yourself and at others and it is all just fun - no one takes it too seriously...

Who would enjoy it?
It's enjoyable for all ages and music varies - yes there is some country but a lot of dances are now choreographed to e.g. Christina Aguilera, Craig David, Atomic Kitten etc

How much does it cost?
£3

cowboy on a pony
And no, you don't need a horse...

Is it good value for money?
Yes... £3 for a whole night out - what else can you ask for?

Is there any special equipment you need to do this?
No - just yourself and a smile - shoes can be bought but aren't essential

Where and when can you do it?
Bentley, Carcroft etc. There are classes in most areas of Doncaster....our teacher has just started new beginners - Monday Bentley 6.30, Tuesday Armthorpe 6.30, Wednesday Carcroft 6.30 and Thursday Dupont / Parklands on Wheatley Hall Road at 7 p.m.

Got a favourite activity or pastime that costs less than a tenner? Tell us about it!
