If you are planning on coming, please make sure you head to our website (link below) for payment and to complete the ONLINE form. Please note; no online registration, no class.

14.01.2022 It's been a crazy few months. We've stayed in more and maybe taken a Zoom lesson or two. But today is the day. We come bearing good news. It's music to our ears! Can you guess what it is? We are super thrilled to announce that our face to face classes will be resuming as of June 24. There has been nothing more that we, the South West Swing committee, have wanted than to get back to classes and social dancing. ... Although it is now time, these are still unprecedented times and some adjustments must be made to enable us to head back in a safe and responsible way. Please see below for our Covid safety guidelines which are an expectation for all students and teachers at South West Swing. 1- 2 Square metres of floor space is needed per person. This means our venues have changed to adhere with these safety guidelines. Beginner Plus and Intermediates on Wednesday nights will now be at the newly refurbed, 1930s beauty, Cowaramup Hall. Our Beginner classes on Thursday nights will now be at Outloud Dance at 25 Station Road, Margaret River. Our classes will give you the option to rotate partners, stay with the one partner you attend with or to fly solo. 2- Most importantly, the Phase 3 government guidelines state "We must practise good hygiene and physical distancing by keeping 1.5 metres from other people where possible." So, while we will have physical contact while dancing to the music and learning the moves in class, we ask for 1.5 metre distancing during signing in, while listening to teacher instructions and leaving class. That means no hugs and kisses or high fives at any stage. Virtual ones are A-OK! 3- We ask all students and teachers to wash their hands for a full 20-30 seconds (sing "T'aint what you do" and think Shim Sham) or use hand sanitizer when you enter class, prior to the beginning of class. Please repeat if needed during class. 4- We know you might really want to but please do not come to class if you have had any cold and /or flu symptoms in the last 14 days. Rest up, get well and we will see you when you get back. 5- To monitor class numbers and to ensure we do not go over the maximum capacity allowed at our new venues, we have a NEW online booking system. All students wishing to attend a physical class must sign up online. No online sign up, no entry! You will be asked to complete an online form and make payment online only. No cash payments will be taken at this time. Please keep a close eye on Facebook for more info in the next few days and bookmark www.southwestswing.com.au so you can sign up for classes. We are so excited to reconnect with you all and even better, dance with you! See you Wednesday
