After a fantastic 2025 full of fabulous SOS's, we are now looking forward to our very first SOS for 2026.

Can you believe it will be our 93rd event!!! Seems like we better get ready for a big 100th!

For January we are excited to welcome back long time SOS supporters and Australian Salsa OG's Jaime Jesus and Mary Grace! Jaime and Mary will be teaching our pre party Salsa workshop.

Remember also during the day, Jaime and Mary will be teaching workshops at Moveme Academy. We will post links for this in the event, numbers are strictly limited. If you want to improve your Salsa and have some fun doing it (guaranteed) these sessions are not to be missed!

Looking for private lessons? Get in touch.

As always we've got hours of social dancing, on one of the absolutely best dance floors in Canberra only made better with curated music (in addition to our live band) from DJ's Trev, James and Juan for your dancing pleasure and well...SOS!

As always we encourage, invite and support dancers from all studios to come meet, mix, dance and get to know one another. All are welcome!

What to expect:

Workshop: At 7pm come enjoy a salsa workshop with our special guests included in your entry. No partner necessary.

Music: curated by Canberra DJ's and members of the SOS team.

Music Rotation:
