Important Update regarding this weeks classes

Well, life sure moves fast! here’s the latest for this week.

SWING On In GOLD COAST:…..

You have ALWAYS wanted to do some Solo Jazz dancing haven’t you? WELL.. guess what? As per the latest directive from Dr Jeanette Young and Ausdance Queensland (who are doing a stella job on all our behalf by the way) we are doing Solo Jazz Dances from the Big Band Era Such as MAMA STEW, The Charleston Stroll choreographed by Sing Yuen Lim and of course fine tuning the Shim Sham;

AND, if thats not enough… we will run through the ABC of Jazz steps (This is so much Fun!)

This is because, although we are allowed to run our dance classes we are not allowed to do contact dance with a partner for 2 weeks. We hope to see you all tomorrow night and of course we will keep you updated via email and socials if anything changes but at this stage we are Jumpin out of our skin for some Jazz tomorrow night!

Tuesday 7pm – Beginners – ABC of Jazz Steps

Int/Adv – The Charleston StrollMermaid Beach Bowls Club

SWING On In MULLUMBIMBY:

SO SO sad to advise that Mullumbimby classes are on hold for 2 weeks due to the Snap Lock down of Byron Shire and Surrounding LGA’s that prevent us from 1: entering NSW ti teach and 2: preventing you to come to class! Actually don’t even know what to say anymore… 🙁 Stay safe kids, try and dance everyday at home, keep in shape and stay positive. I will send you some inspirational dance links to the group page to keep you going.

All our Love, til we meet again…

Chrissy & Ray xx
