ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the Yugambeh Language Region and all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People of the Gold Coast and we also acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the Bundjalung of Byron Bay Arakwal people, the Minjungbal people and the Widjabul people on the lands in which we teach. We recognise their continuing connection and contributions to country and culture. We pay respects to their Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that the core dances we teach, perform and share come from African American and Black culture, as does the jazz music we love. We acknowledge that we do so without lived experience of this culture and are deeply grateful to be able to experience this amazing art form. We endeavour to continue educating ourselves about the historical, political and social context from which jazz and lindy hop grew, and in which it exists today. Understanding this helps us to honour the roots of the dance and music.

🎶 THIS WEEK AT SWING ON IN!

This week Chrissy & Ray got into the juicy stuff shaping, framing and finding that lovely STRETCH that makes your Swing Outs and Circles feel oh-so-good!

It’s not always about adding more moves… sometimes it’s about making the moves you already know feel better, flow better and have a little more swing! ✨

📣 A few things to know this week…

🌺 NO MULLUM CLASS THIS THURSDAY because it’s time for the annual Orchid Show at the Mullumbimby Ex-Services Club.
So instead, Chrissy & Ray are hitting the road and heading up to Brisbane to teach at Swing Patrol Riverside so that’ll be some fun!

🔥 GOLD COAST – WEDNESDAY NIGHT
You are in for a TREAT! The fabulous DION is taking over our specialty class with:
LINDY HOP vs HIP HOP!
Yep… things could get a little spicy. 🌶️🔥
And speaking of spicy things… have you read our latest newsletter yet? 👀

There are some fun things brewing at Swing On In, including a BRAND NEW MONDAY NIGHT CLASS starting in November! More details coming soon.

💌 Not on our newsletter list yet? WHY NOT?!

🌿 SPONSOR SHOUT-OUT — EXPLORE BYRON BAY WITH DELTA KAY 🌿

We are incredibly proud to welcome Delta Kay of Explore Byron Bay as a supporter of the Byron Bay Lindy Exchange 2026. 💙

Delta is a proud Arakwal Bundjalung woman who shares the stories, culture and Country of the Byron Bay region through her guided Aboriginal cultural experiences.

For us, BBLX has always been about more than dancing, it’s about bringing people together, celebrating this beautiful part of the world and acknowledging the Country on which we gather.

We are especially privileged that Delta will join us on Friday evening to offer the Welcome to Country at our BBLX Welcome Dance, beginning our festival weekend with connection, respect and a sense of place. ❤️💛🖤

And there’s something special for our visiting dancers too!

🌿 BBLX festival-goers receive 15% OFF Explore Byron Bay tours 🌿

If you’re travelling to Byron for the Exchange, why not stay a little longer, explore beyond the dance floor and experience Country through the stories and knowledge of the Arakwal Bundjalung people.

A huge thank you to Delta and Explore Byron Bay for supporting BBLX 2026 and for welcoming our dancing community to Country.
