Plymouth Clog was originally called Plymouth Maids but changed its name in an attempt to encourage more men to join.
The group said it was also looking for musicians who play traditional folk instruments to join them.
Tammi Boyd, 35, is one of the group’s youngest members and hopes it is a tradition other young people would want to help preserve.
She said: “For me I find it very important, because I see not as many young people doing it, it feels as though some people don’t want it to continue and it is something that we have, why not have it, like cream teas, like going down the pub, why not have something else that can continue and be loved for future generations.”
Jacqui Blake, the group’s squire or leader, said: “We all wear the traditional wooden clogs, that would have been used in the industries back in the 1800s.”
