NEW CLASS TIMES AND STRUCTURE PLUS NEW WORKSHOPS – READ ON

Howdy Swing Kids

Well one thing you can say about getting sick after Cooly Rocks On Festival.. you have downtime and that means catchup time so that means another newsletter for you.  WHAT?  twice in a month, what is going on…

Can you even imagine those numbers?  4000 inside the Savoy Ballroom with 5000 more outside waiting to get!  Swing was the thing on 11 May 1938

In this newsletter:

  1. New Class times and Class Structure – Commencing  July.
  2. Changes to Mullum Swings
  3. New Gold Coast Swing Dance Social
  4. New Workshops coming up
  5. A Very Fabulous Affair

New Class times and Class Structure – Commencing  July

Ray and I are changing up the classes a bit and trying a new format.  We hope this new format pleases existing Swing On In dance community but also bring in new fresh faces to learn Swing Dancing with us.

NB:  We strongly encourage beginners to still come early and watch the Intermediate/Advanced class so you can a sense of where you are heading on your new dance journey!    We also strong encourage Intermediate/Advanced students to stay on and help the beginners through their class.  This gives new people confidence and real joy at the possibilities of being a better dancer sooner!   Please note these changes will commence from Wednesday 5 July & Thursday 6 July and then onwards.

6.45pm – 7.35pm – Intermediate/Advanced (50 min class)

7.45pm – 8.35 Beginners/Transition (50 min class)

8.35 – 10pm – Social dance practice & one on one help with instructors

Changes to Mullum Swings

We have decided with so many events on that we would pull back on the monthly Mullum Swings and make it Bi Monthly.  We also took into consideration that you will all have much more social dancing time in classes now with the new structure so we are hoping that fills your cup too!

Last 3 dates for 2023 (Can’t even fathom that I am saying this… where has the year gone!)
