Winter Solstice - the Dance druids are in action

Winery Tour - Saturday 22nd June

Canberra Wineries are renowned for their superb cool climate wines.  So - the dance druids from Audacity are having a wine tasting social!  Join us at 10am in West Row Civic to board the Dionnsus Express (well actually it will be a Deane's bus) to Murrumbateman and beyond!  Enjoy a packed picnic lunch, four wineries, afternoon tea all for $99.  This event is truly social - so why not invite your friends?  We return by 5pm in time to go spruce up for our dinner at the Zen Yai restaurant starting at 7pm.

Register by emailing Mark at mark@audacitydance.com.au. Bookings close 9pm Friday 14 June.

Why the Winter Solstice theme?

Have you checked the date?  Friday is the shortest day of the year and we need some fun events to perk up the landscape.  And that is why we have arranged for Samantha Buckwalter to come out from the US to rev us all up.  She is giving up a week of her summer to brighten our lives - and that she will. 

Introducing Samantha

Did you know Sam is a champion dancer trained by the WCS master himself, Mario Robau?  She has taught all over the world.  Samantha has many accolades - too many to list here.  Samantha will take our Tuesday night dance class on the 18th, will teach a Leader's Styling workshop on Thursday, a Follows Styling workshop on Friday and thre group workshops on Sunday.  All workshops are $40.
