We love our absolute beginners but it’s time to let our more experienced dancers shine! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis one’s for the dancers who have done the beginner course (or already have a few routines under their belt)\, our intermediates and our advanced dancers who are keen for a proper social session on the floor. No step-by-step basics here; just great music\, confident energy\, and a room full of people who know the moves. Join us for an afternoon of boot scootin’\, crowd-favourite dances\, with a few trickier numbers thrown in to keep things interesting. Expect a relaxed but lively atmosphere where you can practise\, polish\, and properly enjoy the rhythm. \nTicket includes: An evening of dancing; Grazing boards to share; One drink on arrival; bar snacks menu will also be available throughout the evening if you are feeling peckish between sets. \nWhether you’re intermediate\, advanced\, or just confident beyond beginner level\, this is your space to dance it out with a like-minded crew. Dust off those boots and we will see you on the floor. Don’t sleep on getting these tickets\, we sell out every time!

SUMMARY:Slow Evening @ Alternate Root
DESCRIPTION:Slow Evenings Series: Tapas & Craft \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA little indulgent\, a little creative… Join us for an evening of grazing\, sipping\, and making things with your hands. Choose your tapas as you go; small plates designed for sharing\, sampling\, and ordering “just one more.” Feeling inspired after a drink or two? Add a craft (or a few). Each project is just $10\, so you can lean into your artistic era without the commitment. Think low-pressure\, slightly tipsy creativity. No experience required\, perfection actively discouraged. \nCome with friends\, bring a date\, or fly solo and make something anyway. Stay for one drink or settle in for the night. Eat well. Make things. Romanticise your life a little.
