Class Diary

The End of Summer

()
22 Feb 2010

Quick as a flash, we’ve hit the end of summer, and the days will start to get shorter and the nights cooler.  Already there’s a whole stack of events coming up – we’ll try to mention most of them here, but check out the SP website to get the latest updates!  The one event you absolutely have to get into your diary now is the Meet the Scene Ball, on the 10th of May – it’s the first time during the year that the entire Melbourne swing community gets together to swing out, so it’s guaranteed to be a splendid night.

 

In the mean time though – check out the Funpit at 432 Church St this Friday, and have a peek at the tap and solo jazz workshops by international superstar Ramona Staffeld on Saturday.

 

See you next week!
