Whitfords Ballroom Dance Group
We have a weekly program that includes both Modern Sequence and New Vogue dancing. We meet on Wednesdays at the Whitfords Seniors centre which is on the East side of the Whitfords Shopping Centre next to the Library.
New Vogue Dancing is the Australian version (ca. 1930) of the Modern Sequence Dancing which originated in the UK. We also include some popular old time favourites. To view our monthly program visit next 5 week dances at the top of this page.
We have had significant success introducing the Stardust Foxtrot and the Carisbrooke Cha Cha. Most people who tried these dances were enthusiastic and welcomed their inclusion to our program.
We would appreciate feedback from you regarding our dance program and any other dances you would like included.
An addition to our website.
Two of our members run a small dance in North Beach on similar lines to our dance, that is the program includes Modern Sequence and New Vogue. This is a low cost dance with a very well maintained wooden floor The format is very flexible and dances not in their program will be allowed on request. The dance is at the North Beach Community Centre 20 Castle Street North Beach, behind the Yelo Cafe.
