I read the message but have lost it. North Brisbane.
Try www.superiorballroom.com. au. Richard and Natalie Perry. Ranked top twenty world wide. They give private lesson at various venues. Including as you will see Hong Kong. Natalie is here most of the time. Not for the next couple of weeks though because of Blackpool. If you take up New Vogue or Latin we have some excellent teachers including former seventh in the world Joanne Buric for Latin. On the Gold Coast about 6o miles south lives former winner of every title in Modern Anthony Hurly. New Vogue at the competition level has a lot going for it. There is much shaping of the body and arms for the man as well as the lady. In some parts they have to be a mirror of each other. Also there are a mass of dancers here,most of them the walk around kind. Not at all interested in medals or competitions. To enjoy yourself there you have no option but to learn New Vogue and English Sequence Dancing. You will think of New Vogue as Sequence Dancing. I am amazed how many dances most of them know. At a guess most would be able to do a hundred or more off the top of there head. Having said that there are many studios for serious dancing and for medals and competition dancing. If you are interested in the Street Latin type of thing look up www.jillsjive.com.au a good night guaranteed. No New Vogue there . Also it is on the Northside of Brisbane.Have Fun.

Thanks for your help and for replying after you lost my message. I am going to try the links you have provided and see what I can find.

Just one more question, are there any competitions in australia for dancers to compete as a hobby. I compete in the Supadance league over here which is considered to be at a lower level than the amature competitions and is really just more relaxed and fun????

Thanks again for your help

Anon 3. You wont be short of competitions at any level. I the past few months there have been some changes. Lesser important competitions for the not so high graded are being run. I would imagine you would able to compete in the more important competitions. They have Adult which is under 35's. Senior over 35 to 50. Over 50's are called Masters. In each section there are grades 1 being the lowest and used to be called E Grade. There are 5 grades and Open Grade. I'm sure you would fit in there somewhere. Each person is registered and their winning position recorded. This could then put you into the next higher Grade. In a round about way but easy to temember. Start at Dancesport UK. Go to world wide links. Then Australia and Dancesport Australia. Find Competitions and then Queensland. This should help. Good Luck
