Brisbane dancers—you asked, we listened! After an incredible first run earlier this year, we’re thrilled to bring Country Swing Thing with Shane & Keri back to Brisbane for another round of high-energy, heart-pumping fun.

This time, we’re keeping things short, sweet, and intensive—a one-day immersion into the best of Country Swing, plus plenty of time to dance, laugh, and connect with your fellow two-steppers.

Here’s what’s in store:

Friday, November 14 – We’ll kick things off with a night out in Brisbane, connecting with familiar faces and new friends on the dance floor.

‍Saturday, November 15 – Workshops at Newmarket Hall

Workshop 1 (1.5 hrs): From solid beginner foundations through to smooth and stylish advanced patterns, we’ll help you level up your social dancing step by step.
Workshop 2 (1.5 hrs): Time to kick it up a notch! This session dives into advanced movements, lifts, and tricks—perfect for dancers ready to wow their partners (and the crowd!).

After the workshops, we’ll enjoy a community dinner together, then head back out for another night of dancing—putting all those new moves into action!
