Hello! We've got a new performance class video for you all. This time a Contemporary Fusion piece choreographed by Jonathan Xian. Contrasting to our previous urban pieces, this one takes us on a much more emotional journey, so sit back, relax and enjoy the ride!

Welcome Week 2017

23/2/2017

Comments

 
Welcome Week is almost upon us! For those of you who don't know what it is, it's a whole week of FREE Flare dance classes taught by some of our very talented Flarians, no membership required. This is a great opportunity for those who are still unsure or just curious to come along and check out what Flare is all about. Of course, these classes aren't just restricted to the unsure and curious; EVERYONE is welcome to come, so bring your friends along too! We do cater for a range of skill levels from beginner to intermediate, so even if you've never danced a step in your life, don't be afraid to just come and give it a shot. 

​​Classes will be held at Jason Coleman's Ministry of Dance (MOD) on the weekdays and Dance Factory on the weekend. For directions, refer to our Venues page. But, if you think you have a terrible sense of direction, not to worry because we will have committee members posted at the relevant stops/stations to escort you to the venues (read further below for details). They will be there 45 minutes prior to class start and will be leaving 30 minutes prior to class start, so try not to be late! But, we know sometimes lateness just happens (delays, sleep-ins, etc.) so we will also be leaving behind a committee member or two to help direct and escort any latecomers. 
​
So, summarising the important stuff:
  • When: ​27th Feb - 5th Mar (refer to our Timetable page for the full class schedule)
  • Where: Jason Coleman's Ministry of Dance (weekdays) and Dance Factory (weekend)
  • Escort location for MOD: Queen Victoria Market tram stop (Stop 7)
  • Escort location for Dance Factory: Flinders Street Station (under the clocks at the main entrance - picture for reference)
  • Facebook Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1414612855218074/

And for some final notes:
  • Make sure to wear comfortable/appropriate clothes to dance in (i.e. no heels, refrain from ballet flats & skirts, nothing too tight/restrictive)
  • Bring a water bottle because you'll need it
  • Membership will still be available for $25 (NOT the early-bird O-Week price of $20)

Refer to our FAQ page if you still have any questions.

O-Week is just around the corner, so start looking forward to two days of amazing performances and Flarians getting all up in your face about joining (sorry, they can't help it). But before we get into the details, we'd like to wish everyone a Happy New [Flare] Year. "Welcome back" to our old members and a "nice to meet you/hope to see you soon/welcome to the club" to all our potentially new members!

Now, onto the details...As always, we'll be having our special early-bird deal on membership for all those who sign-up at our stall during O-Week. So that's:
​
  • Early-bird price: $20 (compared to $25 post-O-Week)
  • Stall hours:  22nd & 23rd Feb, 11AM - 3PM
  • Stall location: South Lawn, University of Melbourne

Throughout those two days, we'll be putting on a total of 6 performances around Uni just to showcase a little of what we do and we invite everyone (really, everyone, including all your family, friends and dog) to come down and check it out. Locations and times are outlined in the image attached to this post, but in case that doesn't show up, we'll also note down the performance times and locations below:

22nd Feb
12:00PM, Old Quad
1:00PM, South Lawn
​1:45PM, Old Quad
​
23rd Feb
