Swingsation
Thirteen (!) yes thirteen Canberra dancers were at this fantastic event on the Gold Coast in mid May. It was run professionally and with so many US pros in attendance has to be the top line WCS event currently in Australia. We were all very proud of Emily who made the Novice JnJ finals. Well done.
