It’s been a while since Slow Soiree, and Brisbane Swing Thing, and now we’re craving cheese toasties again.

We’ll be feeding any peckish visitors who stop by to our Open Day on Saturday (housewarming is hungry work), so swing by and grab something tasty between classes.

If you’re looking for something a little more caffeine rich, our new downstairs neighbours Happy Stack Cookies do a delightful brew (and cookies to boot!) - so make sure to swing by and say hello!

Roll up, roll, up - who’s feeling lucky and ready to win? 🎁

We’ve put together a BUNCH of exciting goodies as lucky door prizes on Open Day, from free social passes, to merch. 😮

But there’s one catch, you have to be in it to win it, and by in it - we mean the vicinity. We’ll be calling winners all day long to claim their prizes - so hang around, enjoy the free classes, and don’t wander off too far 😉

To go into the running for a lucky door prize, register for our free open day on Zenamu

We’re so excited to be sharing our new studio with you, and what better way to do it than with free classes, tasty food, prizes, social dancing, and community cheer? 🤩

Seeing as it’s an Open Day, we want to give you an open invite! Bring your friends! Bring your mum! Bring your workmate! Your boss! Your cat! (Maybe don’t bring your cat) 🐈

We love swing dancing, and our vibrant community that makes it what it is - and we know that you do too. We’d feel so honoured if you’d bring a friend or two along and share this day (and
the joy of swing dancing) with them.

All of our classes for the day are open level, no experience required, so now’s the perfect time to bring your loved ones and show them what it is you spend all your time doing!

Let’s talk parking at our new studio! We’ve had a few (a lot) of you asking where to find parking around our new home, so we’re pleased to present this handy dandy guide of Susie’s favourite
parking spots.

You’re going to want to check out Warry Street and Water Street for street parking. They’re both just a short walk from the studio, and they come recommended by Susie!

We’re also only a short walk from the station, and there are plenty of bus stops nearby.
