Name needed for maypole business

I've bought my maypole, I'm getting a music system and I'll shortly be arranging public liability insurance.

My next problem is to find a name for my business.  My aim is to teach maypole dancing and other traditional English dances including morris.

Any bright ideas?

I'm going to be working with Tradamis, which means I'll be able to offer some things in addition to dance, so putting 'dance' in the name may be a bit limiting.

'Waveney' is one possibility.  It's a name Richard and I have used for several businesses over the years and has the benefit of being very generic.  On the other hand, one could also regard that as a negative...

I expect my initial focus to be on maypole dancing, but don' t really know which way things may develop.

This is just off the top of my head, but there's a tree called an English Maple. Maybe English Maypole? lol

Groan...

(We wouldn't call it an English Maple, of course.)

Oh, well, the lowest form of humor and all that. :)

We call it the Field Maple iirc.

Hurdy Gurdy? Waveney Tatters? Ring O'Posies?

They'd be good names for a morris side, but don't really sound like a business.

I like the sound of hurdy gurdy, but I can't play one, so that's sadly out.

Hurdy Gurdy

Hello.
Yes Hurdy Gurdy is a very beautiful sound. I'm doing Hurdy Gurdy and I like it very much. When the new instrument begins to sound. This is remarkably.

'May I'
'Springstep'
'Best Foot Forward'

I definitely don't endorse 'Pole Dancing for Children'

A Watervole is a rodent, so (with apologies to Pterry)

"The Amazing Rodent and her Educating Morris"
