Jigs

We try to fit in a number of one or two-man jigs into our programme. This not only provides the audience with a bit of variety, but it also gives the non-dancing men a chance of a breather and some liquid sustenance!

Processionals

Processional dances are sometimes used to start or finish a dancing display, i.e. to get the men onto or off the dancing site in an orderly way!. They are also used, as the name suggests, to move the men from one dancing spot to another, or for the side to join in a larger procession. The dances we use for this are:

Wheatley processional
Winster processional

Dance Notes

ESMM have one of the largest reportoires of any Morris side in the country. We maintain strong reference to the tradition but have our own style which has evolved over the years and as it is a living tradition will continue to do so.

Although this is very much a work in progress, Click on the links for notes on each of the traditions and dances therein that we do, or on the one below for a complete set.

Feel free to download any or all of them.
