Geraldton's intriguing new dance group - No Lights, No Lycra
/You arrive at the hall, wearing something comfy (you're gonna get sweaty!). Bring some water and $5. Find yourself a spot, wait for the lights to go out and shake what your mumma gave ya. That's it!
Originating in Melbourne and now found all over the world, No Lights No Lycra is coming to Geraldton! No lights, no lycra, no teacher, no steps to learn, no technique, just free movement. NLNL is for the lounge room dancers, microphone (hairbrush) wielders, and bedroom mirror booty shakers - It's daggy, it's ridiculous and it's a hilariously good time!
Everything Geraldton spoke with Bonnie who is helping organise the NLNL in Geraldton.
She said 20 people were there for the first NLNL in Geraldton last Friday, including a couple of kids. Anyone's welcome, male and female. And kids are free.
"It's not quite pitch black, you can just make out an outline of other people, but it's dark enough so it's not embarrassing for anyone."
So what does a typical NLNL session look like?

We don't care what you look like and we don't care how you move, we don't even care if you can keep a beat. EVERYONE has the moves within them and its all about how you feel! Nobody's watching, so come and shake away the week with us.

07:00 PM each Friday currently at 21 Urch St - All Things Dance studio, thought the venue may change in the future. Keep an eye on the Everything Geraldton events calendar for info.
