Go Dance Offers Déjà vu Experience for Dallas Night Club Patrons

                              

Austin, TX – Go Dance, Austin’s premiere venue for social dancing, announced today that it will be opening its doors every Sunday night starting May 18 to fill the social dance void created by the recent closing of Dallas Night Club.

 

Entitled “Déjà vu”, this dance experience will mimic Dallas Night Club’s unique ~ yet long-standing and very popular ~ multi-style dance format:

 

·         Beginning with Country Western from 6pm – 9pm

·         Transitioning into West Coast Swing from 9pm – 10pm

·         Ending with Salsa and other club Latin styles from 10pm – 1am

 

Music will be DJ’d by Go Dance’s staff of professional and award-winning dancers ~ highly skilled in creating a captivating mix of today’s hottest dance songs.

 

Unlike Dallas Night Club, Go Dance will allow patrons to “bring their own booze”.  Cost is $5 per person at the door.   No reservations required.  Light refreshments will be served.

 

“The closing of Dallas Night Club is a tremendous loss for the Austin community,” said Mylie Arnold, owner of Go Dance.  “Our goal is to provide a viable alternative venue in order to continue the wonderful tradition that dancers all over Austin have looked forward to every Sunday night for years.”

 

Go Dance is a non-smoking social and competitive dance venue featuring a new 2,400 square foot, unobstructed hardwood floating dance floor.  It’s located at the corner of Anderson and Burnet, in Northcross Mall between Guitar Center and Wallpapers-To-Go.  For more information, contact Laura Capes at 512-339-9391 or email info@godancestudio.com.

WE'RE MOVING - FINALLY!

I was beginning to think this day would never come, but here we are.  We got the go-ahead from the landlords this week so the move is on!

All classes, lessons and parties will happen at the current studio through Friday March 7th. 

Beginning Saturday March 8th we will be in the new studio.  Yeah!

The entrance to the new studio is located on the north (Anderson Ln) side of Northcross mall between Guitar Center and Wallpapers to Go facing Schlotsky's.  Once you are through the entrance come down the hall and we will be on the left hand side.

LET THERE BE LIGHT...

...And it was so good! 

As of today, our new studio finally has electricity.  That's right folks - lights, camera - Air Conditioning!  The staff here at Go Dance have all been (not so) patiently waiting to start teaching out of our bigger, better space, as I'm sure most of you have, and it looks like the wait is finally almost over!

We'll keep you posted here on our website, as well as by e-mails (if you subscribe to our mailing list) on the final expected move date into your, and our, brand new Go Dance Studio.

Thanks to everyone who has graciously helped with the floor and donated most valuable time to help us get into our new space - you are all appreciated more than you know.  Can't wait to see you all there!
