Booty & the Beats DANCE CLASSES
We dance to flavoursome rhythms from all around the globe. Dancing to feel good!

I spent the weekend floating around Womadelaide Festival watching thousands of humans move, dance, jiggle, and vibrate to live music.

I loved the small movers, the little head bounces, the foot taps, a jig or a shuffle. The joy in people’s eyes as they were lead to “put your hands in the air” or “jump” and they enthusiastically obliged. Sooo simple and brilliant!

So with that, here is my nonna reminding me that life’s too short not to dance. 92 years young and still swinging her hips. There are always reasons to keep moving. May we all grow live long dancing our days away!

This weeks classes:
NORTHCOTE - Wednesday 7.30pm
FRANKSTON SOUTH - Thursday 7.30pm

My classes are all “open level classes” for great reasons. One of the students in this video has been dancing with me for six months, and one has been dancing with me on and off for 20 years.

For me, open level means:

• There’s something for everybody to learn and take away
�• You’re in a room with a range of abilities, confidence, and experience
�• It’s a more inclusive experience, we dance together.
�• It’s a little bit challenging for everyone.
�• Beginners are welcome (yes, your first week might feel big!)
�• Experienced dancers are still able to grow and refine.

My style isn’t about learning a syllabus.�It’s about rhythm, groove, confidence, and good energy. We’re building a deeper connection to our bodies and that means there’s always something to learn in every class, even for me!

Sharing a beautiful message I received from a student of mine up in the Northern Rivers 💛
Feeling really blessed for the ways dance has taken me to so many different communities around the country.

It’s always been my favourite way to meet with new people. Non-verbal and yet highly expressive.

I met Kira at least twelve years ago. We danced together again just last week. In class, I caught her reflection in the mirror and thought to myself, she’s in it….she owns it. Her body, her movement. I could see the joy that dance brings to her permeating the space around her. I couldn’t help but smile quietly, thinking how lovely it has been to watch that embodiment over all these years.

I’ve travelled through places like Byron Shire and Alice Springs many times, and more recently connected with communities in Bellingen and Nambucca Heads.

I’d love to keep connecting with more people outside of Melbourne. If you live somewhere else, where are you? Want to dance with me this year?
