Hoedowns for Country Towns is where my line dancing teaching journey started, nearly 5 years ago. While it was mainly a one-year venture in 2022, Kate (who now runs Hope In My Boots in Tbar) and I still run one big event together each year under the HFCT banner, cycling through the states.

It's nearly time for our 2026 annual event, happening this Saturday in Carranballac, Victoria (80km west of Ballarat). The local community has been working SO hard behind the scenes putting this event together.

We have sold over 300 tickets so far but are hoping to get to 500. If you know anyone who lives anywhere even remotely close to Carranballac, tell them to grab a ticket!

All profits from the event will support the rebuild of the Carranballac Hall. If you can't attend, but would like to support the cause, community supporter tickets are available for purchase at the ticket link.

NO CLASSES THIS WEEK.

It’s Roadie to the Grandie time… Dad’s and my annual pilgrimage to Melbourne for AFL Grand Final week. Here’s a photo from the first year of Roadie To The Grandie… back in 2015 when our team was actually good.

Has our team made the final this year? Not even close.
Do we have tickets to the game? Nope.
Will we watch the game in Fed Square and have the best time? Absolutely.

The tradition has been on hold for a few years for various reasons, but this year, IT’S BACK.

Why do you need to know all of this? You don’t, just remember that there are no classes this week (21/9 at Northgate, 22/9 at Murrumba and 24/9 at Fitzgibbon), as I’ll be en route to singing Up There Cazaly with the rest of Melbourne.

Back to normal scheduling next week, see you then!
