Brocky's Rock'n'Roll

 

If you love the 50’s music and want to learn RocknRoll  in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere then Brocky's is the place for you. On Thursday nights you will learn footwork, timing, leading, following and style.  Beginners at 7.30 , Advanced at 8.30.  Contact Howard for more information if you want to join the fun.

Having danced for around 12 years, Howard welcomes non-dancers right through to advanced students and you don’t need a partner.  It is important in Rock'n'Roll dancing that the guy learns to lead and the lady learns to follow while keeping in time and creating your own style. Please phone Howard and have a chat to find out how you can join in too.

Old Skool Rockers

Greg Thomas & Vicki Harney

Both love to dance and are firm believers in the “old skool” style of rock and roll - which concentrates on such things as timing, leading, following and smoothness – whilst all the time allowing people to develop their own dance styles. Friendly and unassuming, both are very approachable and only want to see you have some fun in their classes. Don’t sweat the small stuff, and if you don’t pick it up straight away – no problem!!

 

Remember – it’s a hobby, and a very enjoyable one at that!

Swing Crazy

Cheryl Glasgow

Cheryl has been teaching Lindy Hop longer than any other teacher in Perth, and with the ceasing of Swing Junction weekly classes, is now running her own swing school, SwingCrazy. Her philosophy is that you come to class to learn, but you practice on the social dance floor....and the sooner the better! Her dance style is laid back and playful and quietly creative with a little kick to it.

SwingZing

Sophie Yesberg & Greg Player

Sophie has a strong contemporary and dance teaching background. She holds a Degree in Dance. Swing dance was immediately attractive to Sophie, as it has similar concepts, playfulness and creativity to Contact Improvisation, another passion of hers. Sophie’s aim, in teaching for SwingZing, is to impart the immense joy of swing dance and music to the Perth community. Sophie believes swing dance is an ideal form of exercise mixed with creativity, which can be practised and enjoyed by people of any age and skill level.

 

Greg is proficient in many disciplines of ballroom, he has gained achievements of Gold Latin, Silver Ballroom and Silver New Vogue. Greg loves the variety of swing styles - Balboa, Collegiate Shag and Lindy Hop, and the wonderful tunes of the 30's and 40's swing era. Through teaching swing, Greg hopes people can enjoy the exuberant feeling of releasing their inhibitions while dancing to a wide variety of swing music and meeting like minded people world wide.

There are of course many other dance schools in Perth - from the ballroom variety (ie Gilkisons or Juan Rando Dance Academy ) which may teach jive or swing among a plethora of other dances, to all other dance modes from belly dancing to pole dancing. Our list deals with schools teaching only or predominantly the rock'n'roll variety.
