Avonhead Dance Classes - Wednesdays

Avonhead School, 55 Avonhead Road

Wednesday has a lively atmosphere with between 50 and 90 people attending. The hall has a large floor and we provide mood lighting making this a really popular mid-week night out.

This is our OMJ night (Ōtautahi Modern Jive), OMJ is a group within Fevah for dancers keen to keep up with latest music releases as well as dancing to classic hits. Dancers are any age but are mainly in the 18 - 35 range.

Beginner Class

We start with the basics followed by three moves which you can use in your social dancing. You do not need a partner as we rotate regularly in the class, however you can also stay with a partner if that is your preference.

Included is a 30 minute review session to ask questions and get one to one assistance.

Extended Freestyle Nights

The last Friday of each month is extended freestyle and every now and then we have extended freestyles on Wednesdays.

Intermediate Class

Learn some more challenging moves and techniques!

We teach 2-3 moves, one of which may be repeated from the previous week. We include extra technique points to help with safety and style. There is a review after the class with the teacher and demo.

Dancers need to complete a Skills Check with a teacher before moving up to intermediate.

Social Dancing

Social dancing or freestyle is when we turns the lights down and enjoy continuous music until the end of the night.

This is a great time to meet other dancers, practise moves and dance skills to wide variety of music to suit all tastes.
