I understand that sometimes you need a break from dance. You have other things to do. Or, sometimes, you just want to do nothing. And then after that, you're ready to come back.
So please know that if you ever want to take a break and then come back later on, then I am totally cool with that. We are rather full at the moment with privates, but we will also do our best to accommodate you if you are keen to come back now. And you always have the option of group classes. The new cycle will be starting next week (on the 4th) and we will be doing the following styles:
And remember that we have the awards coming up, if you are going to come along as an observer, then get your ticket here - https://www.destinedance.com.au/store/p38/Sep2023Awards.html. Secure these soon so you can attend (note that attendance does not come with other packages) and I can organize catering. See you on the dance floor Clint Steele

As mentioned last week (and shared in the group) we have now organised for a group booking at the Gatsby Night in October. It's going to be a great night of music, dressing up in 1920's style (a bit better than the 2020's style to be honest), and dance.
You can book your ticket here - https://www.lifesaball.com.au/events/vip-save-the-date/. When you do, you will be asked if you are part of a group. Type "Destine Dance" and you will be part of the group booking. There's already 4 of us booked so join in. By the time of this event, we would have done some Jive, Lindy Hop, Cha cha, waltz and slow Foxtrot in group class. These are dances likely suited to the night so you well be well prepared. Speaking of group class: • Monday 7:30pm Street Latin - Merengue (a fun and sexy dance that is easy to learn) • Tuesday 6:30pm Latin American - Samba (a fun dance expressing the energy of carnival) • Wednesday 7:30pm Swing and R'n'R - Blues (practically by definition, the coolest of all the dances) • Thursday 6:30pm Ballroom - Standard tango (the ballroom dance that once dominated the world) This is week 5 so stick at it to enjoy what you have learned thus far. Soon we will be doing: • Kizomba • Jive • West Coast Swing • Waltz So if you are looking to jump in when the next cycle starts, then get ready. If you are not getting to all the group classes, then get your teacher to go over dances for the Gatsby night in your private lessons. But after you have prepared for the awards. I have emailed people about the details so make sure you got the email if you are going for an awards. Speaking of the awards. If you are not going for an award, but want to attend, then you can secure your ticket here - https://www.destinedance.com.au/store/p38/Sep2023Awards.html. $15 to support others, get a dance lesson and get some pizza. The bar will also be open - so a good night. Things will finish by 7:30pm in time for group class. See you on the dance floor Clint First things first, the group classes this week:
Disco was good on Saturday night. We were able to utilise a number of styles taught: cha cha, Lindy Hop, r'n'r and even some merengue (which went better than some expected!). This is what these socail events are about - using what you learn. So now let's consider some 20s swing. Save the date for this event - https://www.lifesaball.com.au/events/vip-save-the-date/. I will soon come back to you with details on how to secure your space on a table we book, but for now, just make sure you can make this night. And make sure you know what you will wear. Finally, we have the awards coming up. I have sent emails to those going for awards so double check you have the email and your recorded details are correct. If you are not going for awards, then save that date - 6 Sep 2023 - there will be the awards, dance, pizza and the bar will be open with excellent prices. See you on the dance floor Fist off, the group lessons this week:
Awards The awards are around 4 weeks away - 6th of September. I will be organising to have the bar open and get in pizza. I will soon set up a way to book in advance, but for now, save the date. Things will kick off of 5:30pm and we will still have group class that night. If you are going for your awards, then your teacher will be talking to you about it this week. If you are not going for the awards, then it is fun to watch, it is a chance to support fellow students, and we also include dances for guests as well. Not to mention again the pizza and bar. Disco time It's been a while since the last disco event at the studio, but it was a great night. The music is good and you can dance swing, Latin and rock and roll to the music. So make sure you can make it to the next one this Saturday night - https://www.facebook.com/events/768122354924501. Let me know by Friday if you want to come. See you on the dance floor Clint |
