Weekend 5-6 October 2019
To commemorate André Van De Plas's contribution to our group, we are holding a workshop by Kaye Laurendet, André's Australian collaborator.
Kaye is based in Sydney and runs an active dance group in Sutherland shire. Kaye arranged André's visits, and wrote the English version of his dance notes.
Before his passing, André sent Kaye some material for 10 dances in his planned 2019 tour, which she can present in this workshop.
André had the ability to select wonderful music and dances. We have a final chance to enjoy this, and say goodbye.
Sun 6 October to Sun 20 October
Our regular Performers and Graduates sessions are being rescheduled from the first Sunday of the month to the third Sunday 20 October, to allow for the André Farewell Workshop.
This applies only to October 2019.
