Help spread the word about five free dance classes for Victoria's Premier Active April 2018
05-03-2018
The Premier’s Active April (PAA) campaign is part of the Victorian Government’s commitment to promote healthy, active lifestyles and have Victorians physically active. The campaign runs for the entire month of April. It offers prizes to Victorian schools, workplaces and individuals for being more active.
Inspire fellow Victorians to 'try out dancing'
The Victorian government knows that, as dancers, we are already physically active. However, they need us to help inspire our fellow Victorians to dance and increase their physical activity.
What better way to ‘try out’ dance than by attending five free Ballroom and Latin dance classes from one of our participating dance schools or studios!
The details are all on the special PAA DanceSport website at http://paa.dancesport.org/
Spread the word for five free dance classes
Please inspire Victorians to come and try five free dance classes by:
- Visiting PAA DanceSport website http://paa.dancesport.org and clicking Facebook Share
- Liking and sharing the posts when you see them on Facebook
- Mentioning the names of your friends on Facebook to give dancing a go!
- Telling all your friends about this fabulous offer - and for them to tell their friends
The five free Ballroom, New Vogue and Latin group classes will enable a shared experience and the potential to make new friends.
Tremendous dance school and studio support
Across Victoria, nearly 40 dance schools and studios are eagerly participating - more than double the 2017. Each participating dance school/studio is listed on a special website http://paa.dancesport.org/ that is:
- Grouped alphabetically by suburb
- School/studio name is displayed with contact details
- Location of school/studio has link to Google Maps
- Availability of classes and session times
The website is comprehensive and has been designed to make it easy for people to find their nearest dance school or studio.
All the participating dance schools and studios are Registered Training Facilities (RTFs) with DanceSport Australia. This means they are recognised by our sport's governing body and abide by a Professional Code of Conduct.
Geoff Vine, Chairman of DanceSport Australia’s Marketing and Communication Commission, stated, "Support for the program from Victoria has been amazing. It clearly demonstrates the goodwill within the industry and how it can pull together to provide a unique and compelling offer for the benefit of Victorians. After all, five free dance classes is a very generous offer."
Bonus prize draw
Participants completing their five free dance classes go in a prize draw, with the chance to win one of the following:
- Five free half-hour private dance classes
- Five free group classes
- Free pair of men’s dance shoes
- Free pair of ladies’ dance shoes
How great is that? Even more reason to promote PAA!

Geoff Vine said, "We are confident this year will be an even greater success than last year. By working together we can bring great benefits to people, dance schools and DanceSport. In fact, we are now working on expanding the program to offer five free dance classes across Australia! It's an exciting time for DanceSport."
