TANGO WEEKEND STARTS TODAY! 💃🖤

It’s not too late to join us!

We are incredibly lucky to have Baz Arnold visiting us from Melbourne this weekend, sharing his knowledge, experience and beautiful understanding of Argentine Tango with our Townsville dance community.

Opportunities to learn from teachers of Baz’s calibre don’t come along every day — and you do not need to be an experienced Tango dancer to benefit. Today begins right at the heart of Tango: connection, the embrace, movement and learning how two people communicate without words.

TODAY — SATURDAY 29 AUGUST
12:00pm — The Art of the Embrace
1:30pm — Spiral Turns
3:15pm — Introduction to Milonga

Then we continue tomorrow with Vals, Colgadas and a guided Práctica.

If you’ve been sitting on the fence thinking, “I don’t know enough Tango…” — come anyway. This is exactly the kind of weekend where you learn. ❤️

It’s not too late. Come and join us!

TONIGHT! 🌙 VELVET NIGHTS IS BACK!

An evening of beautiful music, elegant dancing, great food, and wonderful company awaits.

Join us on Friday 28th August at The Wine Bar for another unforgettable Velvet Nights.

We encourage everyone to come early, settle in with friends, enjoy a delicious meal, a glass of wine (or your favourite drink), and soak up the atmosphere before the dancing begins. The Wine Bar is the perfect place to unwind, catch up, and make a night of it.

🔥 NEVER DANCED BEFORE? THIS IS FOR YOU! 🔥

Global Dance Collective is opening our Term Four courses to COMPLETE BEGINNERS — and absolutely no dance experience is needed!

Starting in early October, you can step onto the dance floor and learn from the very beginning:

💃 Cuban Salsa — vibrant, social and full of Cuban flavour. Learn the foundations, rhythm, partner work and movement that make Cuban Salsa so addictive.

🔥 Bachata — smooth, fun and incredibly social. A beautiful introduction to partner dancing with easy-to-follow foundations to get you moving with confidence.

✨ Urban Kiz — modern, connected and seriously cool. Learn the fundamentals of connection, musicality and movement in this contemporary partner dance style.

🌙 Egyptian Belly Dance — discover strength, musicality, beautiful movement and body awareness while learning the foundations of this incredible dance form.

You do NOT need:
• A dance partner
• Previous experience
• To be “coordinated” before you start
• To already know what you’re doing!

That’s exactly what beginner classes are for. ❤️

Our courses run for 10 weeks, giving you the time to actually learn, build confidence and become part of a welcoming dance community.

📅 New courses begin early October
📍 Global Dance Collective — Townsville

If you’ve been watching from the sidelines thinking, “One day I’d love to try that…”
