Pyjama Theme Nights - 2025

-

With the new alternating program of learners and the completed level on Tuesday nights, we wanted to make sure they didn't miss out on our fun theme nights that previously only happened on Fridays. 

This year we had a Pyjama Theme Night for the Tuesday group on the 29th of July and the Friday group on the 1st of August. 

On Friday night we had visiting dancers from Adelaide, surprised by our theme night. It was great to have them on the night, giving us two squares.

Two theme nights for each group that happened this year, specifically for each group was Pancake Tuesday and Black Friday.
Our next theme nights will be a Mad Hatters Tea Party, Friday the 5th and Tuesday the 9th of September.
You can find more photos of all our theme nights in our 2025 Photo Gallery and links to videos from our 2025 Video Library or go direct to our YouTube channel.

To bring all our dance levels together we are planning on holding a Saturday afternoon social dance each month. Finalising this will happen after confirmation of hall bookings.
This should also give an opportunity to mix with some dancers that don't like to come out in the evenings over Winter, and even some of our A Level dancers, that only get a session a couple of times a month on Sunday afternoons.

Our learners from the start of the year are about to graduate the completed program and welcome brand new learners at the Come and Try nights on the 12th, 19th and 26th of August.
It is also an opportunity for those that learnt the program as the right hand side dancer (ladies position) to learn as the left hand dancer or vice versa.

Return to dancing 2024

Our first night back for 2024 was postponed for a week while Matt was unwell.  Matt did a great job calling on Friday night, while also trying to save his voice for this weekend. For the 10th and 11th Matt is a feature caller at the 20th Anniversary of the Logan City Square Dance Centre.  We started the year on Friday 9th with two squares on the floor for part of the night. The ceiling fans ran flat out, but it was not as hot as it has been lately, so we didn't need to close up the hall to run the air conditioner. It was great to dance again and catch up with people we haven't seen since last year. Some are still away so Matt is looking for an extra angle to dance the left hand side at our Tuesday night learners group. We look forward to getting back to dancing with our learners. It may take a few weeks to finish off the SSD program before they move to the Friday night club dancing. On Fridays, Matt will teach them the extra movements that take them to the Mainstream Level....

September - November Update 2024

Our Black Friday theme night was held on the 13th of September. Normally when we all dress in the same colour, it is harder for the caller to keep track of couple positions in a square. With Matt away, Rob predominantly played recordings of Matt's singing calls that didn't come from a theme night. It was a fun night as always while making fun of comments made by Matt to people that may or may not have been in the current square dancing. Matt was back in person for our Sports theme night on the 4th of October. Outfits included paddle boarding, golf, bike riding, walking / running or general exercise, tennis and team supporters. Sandy and Jo L came as potential Wimbledon doubles champions. Jo L wanted to experience how tennis players carry their tennis balls while playing, dancing half the night with her ball tucked under her skirt. Keep an eye out for an update to our club calendar with a coming social night, graduation dance and our end of year free Christmas dance. Bring some ...

Hawaiian night, September 2023

-
Image
The 1st of September was our Hawaiian theme night. In the lead up to the night Matt spoke fondly of a Hawaiian shirt he had owned that Anita had thrown out. The theme gave him an excuse to buy a new one.  The new shirt had to meet with Anita's approval for wearing around town, so it was not as bold as he would have liked. A few flower leis got Matt's bright colour fix for the night.   Outfits worn on the night by dancers included bright and bold floral prints, a couple of grass skirts and of course, Hawaiian shirts and floral leis. It was nice to have a visiting dancer and a number of spectators on the night. A few people popped in looking for a different dance at another hall on Targo St. We might see them again at our learners class starting on the 12th of September. Follow the link to our 2023 photo gallery to see more photos of the night.
