There'll be a new lot of swing classes on the Shore starting tomorrow :D


This from Megan:

THE SWING STATION TAKAPUNA - GRAND OPENING THIS FRIDAY!! 16 November 7pm-midnight

This is history in the making as the swing invasion of the Shore begins!!! It promises to be a great night, so round up your mates and come along for a swingin' good time.........
  • Opening night Friday November 16 is totally FREE!

  • Our fabulous new venue is St Georges Presbyterian Church Hall, 2 The Terrace, Takapuna (cnr Anzac St and Lake Rd, opp Westfield North Shore). This is only one block from the main drag, with a huge dance floor and plenty of parking outside (in the church grounds or on the street).

  • There will be 2 wicked beginners lessons, kicking off at 7pm (and they will be different, so you can do them both!)

  • There will be some fabulous music for you to social dance to between and after the lessons

  • There will be tea, coffee, and cake provided (of course!!), or BYO alcohol (though in moderation please :)



Then after this week:

Fridays @ Takapuna - The Swing Station will be swinging @ Takapuna EVERY Friday from 7pm - including 2 beginners lessons and PLENTY of social dancing for ONLY $10 per night until the end of the year......

... and there's a new website:

it was amazing to watch. so fast! and that bit where the follow turns around to face the lead and kicks alternately in opposite directions looks très cool.

I didn't even know Colin Mochrie was performing! How was it?

It looks like the Takapuna ones will be casual 'til the end of the year, and then the blocks will start next year.

ah pity! you missed out on learning the charleston. again. ;)

HEAPS of people there. like two full circles in a hall slightly bigger than the mt eden venue.

the second lesson was quick quick slow slow twirly stuff, and lots of social dancing followed. i had a ball :)
