WELCOME

We are Chelmsford Morris!

We are a men's and ladies morris dancing side from Chelmsford, Essex, England.

​Chelmsford Morris has entertained audiences around England with our vibrant and energetic morris dancing.

​Morris dancing is a form of traditional English folk dance, which is believed to have originated from as early

as the 15th century.

​Although its origins are shrouded in mystery, morris dancing as we know today was revived towards the end of the 19th century by folklorists Cecil Sharp and Mary Neal.

​Morris dancing is best described as an umbrella term for different styles of English folk dancing

with different areas of the country featuring their own unique style of dance.

There are currently over 750 active morris sides across the UK. 

 

We pride ourselves in the belief that morris dancing is for everyone and we aim to spread the joy and fun of

dance wherever we go.
