Borderline Blues - plan for August now!

Borderline Blues is a blues dancing exchange based in Albury, NSW from 28th – 30th August 2015.  

There’ll be two days of workshops, three nights of social dancing and an opportunity for people to learn from some of the remarkably talented dancers within the Australian Blues community who we may not usually have a chance to engage with in a learning relationship.

Following are links to the Borderline Blues 2015 Facebook community and event pages for your use.

A few people are discussing going to Albury for this weekend and possibly sharing transport.  Let me know if you are interested.

Please note, if you want to go, don't delay but take advantage of the early bird registration price.
