Move Your Body Dance Company

Move Your Body Dance Company brings social dance to Broadbeach Waters and the wider Gold Coast, specialising in Modern Jive, a friendly fusion of Latin, jive and the kind of partner dancing made famous by Dirty Dancing. The whole format is built around simple footwork and welcoming everyone, whether you arrive with a partner or completely on your own.

Evenings run as a relaxed mix of taught classes and social dancing, with a rotation system that means you get to dance with lots of different people and pick up moves step by step. Beginners are looked after with all-levels classes and recaps, while more experienced dancers have intermediate and advanced spots to keep things interesting. The emphasis is firmly on fun, fitness and community rather than competition.

Longtime regulars describe falling in love with the group and still turning up nearly twenty years on, drawn by the laughter, the encouragement and the sheer joy of moving to music. If you are after a low-pressure, sociable way to stay active and meet like-minded people in Broadbeach Waters, this is a warm and easygoing place to start.
