Dancing Freedom: Spring Festival

Hey everyone!
Spring has arrived 🌼 — and it’s time to welcome in some joy, fun, and vibrant colour as we shift into this new season here in Melbourne!
This month’s Dancing Freedom theme is Spring Festival — a joyful celebration of the key elements of Spring and festival culture:
✨ Community
🎶 Music that lifts the spirit
🌸 Renewal and growth
🍲 Sharing good food
💞 Genuine connection
Festival culture has been part of the human experience for thousands of years — emerging from communal gatherings where people came together to mark seasonal changes, honour important moments, and celebrate through music, food, movement, and shared joy.
🌱 This is a drug- and alcohol-free event.
I’ll also be celebrating my birthday on the night and would love to share that moment with you! 🎉

🎨 Dress code: COLOUR!
Optional — but highly encouraged! Come dressed in your brightest, most playful colours and express your unique self.

🥗 Feel free to bring a plate or some snacks to share for after the dance. Tea provided.

🕒 Time:
The warm-up / first wave of music begins at 6:30 PM — arrive early to drop in and ease into the space.
We’ll circle up at 7:00 PM to begin our main dance journey together.

💸 Exchange: $20–$35 (sliding scale)
Cash welcome at the door

🎁 All proceeds on the night will be donated to Trust for Nature — a Victorian charity that protects native plants and wildlife by helping landowners permanently protect important bushland on private land. They use something called conservation covenants — voluntary legal agreements placed on a property title to ensure the land is protected forever, even if it’s sold in the future. It’s a powerful, lasting way to care for nature that already exists.
🌿 Trust for Nature: trustfornature.org.au

Let’s dance, connect, celebrate, and give back — together.

Warrandyte Community Hall
2-8 Taroona Ave, Warrandyte VIC 3113

Class Breakdown
We start with a warm-up and opening circle, then move through an elemental wave of earth, water, fire, air, and ether. After dancing, we’ll integrate the experience and share in a closing circle. Followed by tea and chats.
YOU CANNOT DO IT WRONG—EVERY DANCE IS A SUCCESS!
