Class Reviews: Mt Lawley!

Week 3 is over and we’re heading towards the end of a GREAT course! The theme of the night seemed to slip between “incorrect grabbing procedures” and dealing with “height issues”. In both instances Sharon’s response to the situation left me a little speechless…which quite frankly really doesn’t happen all that much. Needless to say...

Class Reviews: Subiaco!

Thunder! Lightning! Torrential rains! These pathetic things are no match for Lindy Hoppers in need of a great night of dancing. Sure enough the rain wasn’t quite torrential, and sure enough there wasn’t exactly thunder and lightning but it WAS raining quite a bit and it WAS cold and there WERE rather large puddles so...

Hullabaloo!

Photo by David Cheney Hullabaloo is finally over and Ruth and I would like to thank the PSDS and the Hullabaloo Committee for inviting us to teach at such a prestigious, international event. We had a wonderful time dancing, teaching and sharing our ideas and passion for the dance with everyone over the weekend…regardless of...

Class Reviews: Mt Lawley!

Mt Lawley just keeps on trucking! This time however with more boys than girls! When does that happen??? Well, now apparently. The Lindy 1 class is powering ahead and having a blast as they juggle new footwork with new technique and old jokes. Lindy 2 on the other hand is definitely in need of some...

Class Reviews: Subiaco!

Hullabaloo was finally over and, to our complete shock, we had a packed class! Who would have thunk it. We had some tricky moves but a lot of fun (quite frankly when DON’T we have fun) and even had some special guests in the class: The man, the myth, the legend Mr Julian Rawls, Timana...

No Classes 25th April!

I’m not entirely sure where my head was at but I completely forgot that we wouldn’t be able to hold classes on 25th April. As Wednesday night Vic Park classes are held within the Leisurelife Centre we’re unable to operate when they’re closed (unlike Subiaco which is run out of a hall). As it’s Anzac...

Class Reviews: Victoria Park!

Ever had your car detailed? Then you know the feeling of getting your car back all shiny, sparkling and smelling oh so clean (did you know you can actually buy “New Car Smell” in a can? That’s all well and good but where’s “Freshly cut lawns” and “Rain on pavement”? Anyway…). Well last night in...

Class Reviews: Mt Lawley!

Graduation night! Yes, hats went a flying once more in Mt Lawley as the second Lindy 1 course drew to an end. Fear not! Another course begins again this coming Tuesday with the special bonus of there now being a Lindy 2 class available from 8.30pm – 9.30pm. So much fun crammed into one evening…could...

Class Reviews: Subiaco!

Our constant efforts to make our students nauseous took on a new level in Subiaco this week as we delved into the wonderful world of spins! Spins for the girls, spins for the guys, spins available to all those in need! (of spins) As usual the Subiaco floor was PERFECT for all things Lindy and...

Fly Me To The Moon…

Many thanks to everyone that came down and enjoyed our “Fly Me To The Moon” aerials classes, perhaps better titled “Throwing chicks around to music” but it just didn’t have that ring to it. We know everyone will practice everything they learned safely and with the assistance of their spotters. We’re also confident we’re not...
