Retro Kids
School’s out but these dance crazes aren’t!
We're dancing through the decades, bringing the best bits of pop culture's past to the youth of today. The workshop immerses children aged 8+ in the sounds, styles and sick moves of the late 20th Century.
Do the kids in your life roll their eyes when you rap along with Busta Rhymes? Do they think Meryl Streep wrote Dancing Queen? Or that the watusi is a long-extinct water creature? It's time for a crash course in global dance culture!
Along the way, we'll learn about the icons of the eras (spoiler alert, Dolly Parton is relevant in all decades).
This is an inclusive, non-judgemental dance space for everyone (no matter what decade you were born in).
Saturday:
10am - '60s
1pm - '70s
Sunday:
10am - '80s
1pm - '90s.

Lonely Boot Creations are to line dancing what John Wayne is to Western movies: bringing an under-appreciated genre to the masses with swagger. They're all about joyful, accessible dance experiences!
With a unique approach to line dancing, they've often raised eyebrows among more “strictly” rule-following dancers. This puts them right at home amongst Fringe artists. Self-confessed living room dance enthusiasts, they aren't precious: if you stumble, make it part of the dance.
They have a series of fun festival experiences in their rhinestone-studded belts, including Woodford Folk Festival and Woodford Children's Festival, Caloundra Music Festival and they'd love to teach you a two-step!
