SeaWitch Morris is a women’s Cotswold morris side, started in Seattle the summer of 2023. Our mission is dedicated to the teaching, dancing, singing, playing music, performing and enjoyment of Morris Dancing. We aspire to be astonishingly adequate!

We are dancing our version of the Bucknell tradition.

September through May, you can usually find us practicing at the Phinney Neighborhood Center Wednesday nights 7:30 – 9pm. During the Summer, we practice at Greenwood Park (near N. 89th St & Fremont Ave N) most Wednesdays, with a few danceouts planned. For the lastest information, please check our Facebook page. We have a few dances posted on our YouTube channel!

2025 Practice resumes at the Phinney Center the week of February 5th. (There will also be one practice in January – Jan 8th- for those dancing at the Wassail).

Next dance out:
Saturday, January 11, 1-2pm – Seattle Wassail! The Seattle Wassail is a regional Morris dancing tradition. Each year, local sides and visitors from around the Pacific Northwest join us to wassail the apple trees in Meridian Park. We care deeply about cider, so we give our fruit trees attention and care in the traditional way to ensure they bear fruit in the coming year and its cider harvest!
Join us for this family-friendly event that includes singing, dancing, and toasting to the health of the trees. The wassail happens rain or shine, please dress for the weather. Find us near the apple trees on the Northwest side of the park, bordering Meridian Ave N, just South of N. 50th Street.
