Exciting Times

My Tuesday Group Class is performing this Saturday as part of the Tauranga Over 50’s Ballet studio Christmas performance. Its been a great experience for the six couples to prepare a Rumba routine to be danced on a stage. Wish us luck.

This year I have had the honor to teach a wonderful group of couples their First Dance/Wedding Dance. Their music choices have been amazing. Its always best to dance to a song that means something to you both or one that has suitable lyrics. I’ve been introduced to some new artists too, and been able to create something fresh and new to music I’ve been asked to choreograph to before. Even if all you want is a single lesson I can help you look a little more comfortable on your big day.

New Group Class in 2025

From Sunday 12 January I will be offering a new 6 week group class for couples who want to learn to dance together. These group classes are from 5.00pm to 6.00pm in Bureta and will cover 1 Latin dance and 1 Ballroom dance over the 6 week block.  Each lesson in the series builds on the previous ones so I don’t accept new students after the series starts. If you are interested send me an email or phone for more details.

New “Ladies/Follows who Latin” class in 2025

From Wednesday 22nd of January I will be starting a “Ladies/Follows who Latin” class on Wednesdays 11.00am to 12 noon at the St Columba Church in Cherrywood. This will also run in 6 week blocks and will cover one Latin American dance per series. Again, each lesson in the series builds on the previous ones so I rarely accept new students after the series starts. If you think this might be just what you need to look forward to in 2025 send me an email. I promise a fun class with a good dollop of technique.

Dance Company will be closed from Sunday 22nd of December and I am back teaching from the 5th of January.
