2 fabulous happenings this month.
1 - Our very first 30 second showcase

This month is our first ever '30 second showcase' special.
What is a 30 second showcase?
This is your chance to put together 30 seconds of choreography to showcase to our local dance community. You may be thinking 'gee I always have wanted to try performing but its a bit intimidating' well this is your chance to dive in, in a safe space among other dancers who will have nothing but support for you! Maybe you have just started dancing and want to remember a shines pattern, maybe you're one of our local studio owners or team leaders and you want to just try something out, or maybe you have just started a new style and want to see how it feels to perform, maybe it is a bucket list item...or maybe you are even thinking of entering a competition, there could be all kinds of reasons, we would love to see what our local dancers can come up with.
