This week's Highlights...

1- WEDNESDAY at THE CLAREMONT- CLASSES SUSPENDED
Due to some major renovations being undertaken at The Claremont, we have to vacate the venue for quite a few weeks. It will be at least the end of September before they're finished with the works, so stay tuned here or on facebook and we'll let you know when we're back (hopefully mid Sept-Oct)

2- THURSDAY's  at Gilkison's Dance Studio !!!
Spread the word and we'll make this night a great social night as well. All welcome to come on down after classes for a mix up of Salsa with a good dose of other latin styles including Bachata, Merengue and maybe even a Cha Cha or two!
We wont have a cover charge or charge you for tap-water, so please support the night by purchasing a drink or two, even if it is just a bottled water! It's a small price to pay for one of Perth's biggest and best dance floors, great nightclub style lighting, and well priced bar, without the intoxicated obsticals and sticky mess on the floor.
Please remember the code of entry is >18 y.o. & requires you to bring photo ID & *shoes* & smart dress (men-good pants/jeans)


All (other) classes running as usual.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
