social dancing
As restrictions begin to ease across Queensland, we are excited to be able to offer a greater range of classes from 10th July. Although dance contact will be allowed, we will still be cautious and will not be returning to our original social class format at present. Our classes will be structured for both partner and solo dancing, so that those who wish to remain social distanced can do so, but still get the most out of their class in terms of fitness and technique.
We would still prefer booking ahead so please contact Bec on 0422 967 267 or info@orchardsdance.com.
Please wear smart casual with a pair of comfortable shoes that will stay on your feet (for safety please don't wear thongs, slip on shoes without any backs or shoes with a plastic sole). We recommend you bring a spare pair of shoes in case the first pair feel too slippery. You will be surprisingly active, so dress comfortably and bring a towel and water.
