Term 2 2023

Hey everyone!

Welcome to a new term of UCanDance. Regular classes kick off this Wednesday at 7.30pm in Ti Kouka (which is in Haere-Roa). We've got different venues for classes this term, so check the website and Facebook so you know where to go.

As always, you do not need a partner or any dance experience to attend our classes. Wear clothing that is comfortable to move in, and shoes with slightly slippery soles (or dance shoes) are highly recommended.
We encourage you to bring a drink bottle, deodorant, a spare shirt, and a positive attitude!

Regular classes are $3.00 for students and $5.00 for non-students.You can pay by cash or internet banking
Plus we'll have a couple of deals on offer to help make your dollars go further.
If it's your first time in class, it's free, so bring all your friends!
