This was by far the Biggest Salsa Party to date with at least 300+ people coming to the Bayswater.
The night started with a high energy Latin dance performance by Lupita, Ana & Rebecca from L.A.D Studio (Latin & Alternative Dance Studio) in Maryborough. The girls really got the crowd excited and lead us into a beginners Salsa lesson. This was then followed by some high energy Zumba enjoyed by all!
After we caught our breath it was time to watch the first ever Hervey Bay Burlesque dance performance by Fraser Coast Dance, the hottest new trend in town! The girls were sensational!
“You’ll shimmy, shake, bump, grind, wiggle, jiggle and twirl your way through the classic dance moves. Their classes are designed for adult non dancers or those coming back to dance. The majority ofTonight’s performance group have never danced before!” …. I announced over the mike.
We then danced the night away till after 11.30pm with DJ SParks who did a sensational job playing all the songs I had organised for the night to run smoothly!
A HUGE Thank you to all that helped pull off the AWESOME Latin Dance Party last night and to all for your participation in every special way!
