Russell and Lesley Edwards from Rutherglen VIC produce a three-monthly social dance rag titled: Stepp'n Out 'n' About. An informative listing of "what's on" in the social ballroom dancing world focusing along towns and cities in Victoria, NSW and Queensland. A good read to keep in touch what is occurring outside Penrith.















The DANCERS’ CLUB first gig for 2023 – Sunday 5th February starts at 2:30pm (doors open at 2pm) and finishes at 6:30pm. The lesson will be the Anna's Waltz


As a reminder our last dance for 2022 will be Wednesday 21st December. For those who will be attending will be a hawaiian shirt venue. Alternatively dancers can attend wearing a "loud" (colourful) shirt. Our first dance in 2023 will be on Monday 9th January.


For a trial we will try to organise a Friday night dance for the third Friday in January/February and March 2023. It will be a social event only (no lessons) and if significant numbers of dancers attend we could make this a permanent gig. More about this in a later post. 

                       We remain aware to abide by the current NSW Health regarding COVID safe practices. Please if you are feeling unwell or believe you have been in contact with somebody who has COVID please consider not attending the Monday / Wednesday dances.

·                     Due to complaints from other hall users, not related to dancing, we are not to use talcum powder during dancing activities. Also please refrain from placing shoes on chairs. The Penrith Seniors Citizen Centre committee has ask me to pass on these conditions.

·                     Please be reminded that when entering or leaving the hall when dancers are using the floor and in particular when you are not dancing during the venue do not walk across the floor to interfere with people who are dancing. Please walk as close to the wall and around participing dancers.  

                     We now use  one program consisting of 87 different dances. On Monday 7th March 2022 we started from the top of the program and continue to the end of the night at some point on the program. The following week we will commence dances from that particular point in the program. For Wednesday (9th March 2022) we will start half way down the program. A revised program released 18th October 2022 now includes the Memorial Waltz, TAG Tango and Anna's Waltz.
