Easy Does It Vol. 2 - Swing Dance Party

After the roaring success of the first Easy Does It event, we’re doing it again! This beginner-friendly event is brought to you by Swing Patrol, Shout! and The Bluebelles. Join us for a swing dance party where everyone is welcome! We'll have a beginner-friendly taster lesson to help you find your feet, then swing DJs for hours of social dancing plus a special performance by Shout! and The Bluebelles. Date: Saturday 29 October 2022 Time: Doors open 6:15pm, class 6:30pm, social dancing 7pm-10:30pm Location: Dancehouse Carlton Nervous? New to swing dancing? No worries! This is the event for you! We have a bunch of tricks up our sleeve for the night, to make hitting the dance floor easier. Our host dancers will be back, keen-as-ever to dance with you, or just have a chat. Check out the history corner for the low-down on Lindy Hop’s roots in Black American culture in Harlem, NY. Online ticket sales open 9am Friday 23 September. Get your ticket early - we sold out weeks in advance last time! Door sales will be available on the night, if not sold out in advance (credit/EFTPOS card only – no cash.) Covid Safety: Swing Patrol continues to adhere to the government recommendation to be up to date and fully vaccinated against Covid-19, to hopefully mitigate serious personal illness. We therefore strongly encourage attendees at all dance activities to consider their vaccination status and the possible risks incurred by exposure to numbers of people in close proximity and physical contact, indoors, unmasked and engaging in aerobic exercise. Masks are welcomed and encouraged. * DO NOT come to this event if you are unwell, if experiencing any Covid symptoms, if you have been in recent contact with a positive Covid case or are awaiting Covid test results. Likewise, stay at home if you have illness such as colds and flu. A refund will be available if you need to cancel due to illness/Covid Safety, as long as you advise Swing Patrol via text to 0412 309 311 before 5pm on the day of the event. Please refer to Swing Patrol’s CovidSafe Plan [https://mel.swingpatrol.com/swing-patrol-and-covid-safety/] We acknowledge the diversity in everyone and want to make our community an inclusive space.
