About
Led by Artist Riannon McLean, expect great music, easy-to-follow steps, plenty of laughs, and a whole lot of good energy.
Come stretch it, shake it, and dance it out at this uplifting community movement workshop.
For those feeling especially dancey you’re invited to join us with your new moves in a BLEACH Festival Closing event flash mob on Sunday 11 October at 5:30pm.

No experience necessary, everyone is welcome!
Meet on the grass in front of the BEACON Artwork, kick off your shoes and dance!
