Click these fast links for info on:Monthly Passes on sale TONIGHT
Monthly passes are a great way to improve your dancing without it costing you a fortune. If you're dancing more than once a week it makes great sense to get an 'Unlimited Access Monthly Pass'.
For $60pp (the cost of just 5 casual classes) you can get unlimited access to all 3 Le Step Classes on the Gold Coast (Southport, Broadbeach & Arundel/Parkwood).
These passes are fantastic value and if you're hooked on dancing, enables you to dance as often as you want in any number of Le Step venues including all the Le Step Classes in Brisbane (Holland Pk, Chermside, West End & Red Hill).
If you intend to go more than once a week, this is the best financial option for you.
Venue Report:
Monday night classes are moving!
Until we expand into the south you have three classes to choose from on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
More information to follow - watch this space!
Tuesdays @ Arundel (Air-Con)
Allan is the regular Tuesday night teacher so for the challenge of something different, head to Arundel and join in the fun that goes on there....
Wednesdays @ Dance HQ (Air-Con)
Wednesday nights are getting bigger! A real mix of beginners and regulars with a fun atmosphere to boot.
ORIGIN UPDATE: only one more game left but the class is on as usual. Hey - the maroons have already won so you may as well come for a dance! :)
Fridays @ Broadbeach (Air-Con)
Fridays are pumping as usual. We get great numbers for the late night supper at the Casino afterwards too so if you're looking to kick start your weekend, get out and about with the ever friendly Le Step crowd. All welcome!
'coz of the great numbers on Friday nights, we also offer 3 classes from 9pm at 3 different levels - something for everyone.
See you there!
Annual Charity Event Report
The total amount raised at the Annual Charity Event held last Saturday night was an impressive $4500 but by the end of the night we had a few more donations that took the grand total for the night to and even more impressive $4620 to support the School of St.Jude in Tanzania via the "Kevin Cormie Legacy".
Kevin, the father of Holly (one of our directors from Le Step On the Coast) recently lost his life in a tragic motorcycle accident. Later this year Kevin (a builder) and his wife Jan were due to travel to Tanzania to help build a school for the School of St.Jude project. The money we raised from our Charity Night this year will go toward seeing Kevin's dream of a new school for the School of St.Jude project will still happen despite his death.
This was our sixth annual combined event for charity. If you want to find out about the history of our Charity Events please visit Events>Charity>How it all began.
