Morris Dancing in Maldon |
Maldon is fortunate in being the home to three sides, each reflecting a different tradition of Morris Dancing. We are a group of men and women of all ages who want to continue the English tradition of Morris Dancing and have lots of fun (and the occasional beer!) at the same time.Generally, each side
practises during the winter and dances out at local pubs and
events during the summer. Why not come along and watch us, or
maybe even have a go yourself!

Alive & Kicking | Dark Horse | Maldon GreenJackets |
Alive and Kicking is a mixed
Morris side, formed in 1992 dancing in the traditional
North-West Clog style. Their colours were chosen from the Maldon
crest and consist of royal blue, with gold and white. |
Dark Horse Morris were formed in 1995 and dance "Border" style Morris. This style is characterised by clashing sticks, whoops and shouts. We dance in traditional tatter coats, face paint and top hats decorated with feathers. | Maldon Greenjackets was formed in 1988, originally with all male dancers but in 2000 became a mixed side. They mainly perform dances in the Cotswold tradition, which is the style most often identified as being typically English. It is danced with hankies, bells and sticks. |
