Leg-shaking, side-stepping, body-popping, running man, robot, old-school, crumping, twerking, head-banging, nodding? Who cares, nobody's watching in here! Work up a sweat to the premixed non-stop playlist – you’ll feel energised afterwards. Suitable for all ages. FREE ENTRY! Strictly no alcohol or drugs.
WHERE?
All Saints' Community Centre, Howick
30 Cook Street (the brick building opposite to Subway)
WHEN
Level 1 Thursdays 7–8pm
until 25 Nov 2021
IS THIS 'DANCING IN THE DARK'?
The hall lights are turned off but this is not about dancing in complete blinding darkness. There is a wee disco light for a nice moody feel and to help you see where you're going.
WHAT KIND OF MUSIC CAN I EXPECT?
We’ll be dancing to electronic dance music with hits from 80s, 90s, 00s and today. Chart-toppers, floor-bangers, remixes, mashups, house, synthpop, techno, Euro-disco, dance-pop, some pop & rock, the occasional touch of latin, and much more for a groovy concoction. There won't be any ballroom, waltz, tango and that type of 'traditional' music.
IS THERE A CHOREOGRAPHY TO LEARN?
No, this is just one hour when you can dance however you like. There is no instructor and you don't need a dance partner. Feel free to bring friends along though!
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR & BRING?
Wear anything you feel comfortable in, be it jeans or trackpants, but no high heels please. And bring a water bottle. And a few friends if you like ;) Do not bring valuables, or keep them 'on' or beside you.
CAN I BRING MY KIDS ALONG?
Sure, but they have to be under your supervision at all times and be able to adhere to social distancing. Also worth noting is that a lot of care is taken to keep the music lyrics ‘clean', but there may be the odd unintentional missed word here or there, or mature themes.
DOES IT COST TO GET IN?
This event is FREE to attend – thanks to Howick Local Board and MECOSS, Manukau East Council of Social Services!
CAN I REQUEST A SONG?
Each session has been prerecorded and there is no DJ, so you cannot request a song on the night, but feel free to share your favourites on the DYH Facebook page (see address further below). You never know – there may be new playlists with yours on it!
COVID-19 CONSIDERATIONS
We encourage you to use the Covid-19 tracing app on arrival in addition to the usual headcount log. We also ask you to respect other dancers' social space. Government's COVID-19 advice may change from time to time, so do keep up-to-date by following public announcements.
Please note: due to the continuing unpredictable nature of Covid-19 situation and the vast number of groups using the hall, the venue owner may take a more cautious approach without prior notice. We will of course try to get the word out immediately if any sessions are cancelled, but this may not always be possible if things happen quickly, and especially newspaper community notices may not be able to be retracted in time.

The email directs the recipient to renew the funds through clicking a 'Renew Now' button at the bottom corner of the email. It then takes the individual to fake website that gets them to fill in personal details.
CERT NZ, the government authority responsible for cyber security said in a tweet, that anyone who receives this email should report it directly to Waka Kotahi (NZTA).
How to spot a phishing scam:
- NZTA will only send an email through if an individual has contacted them first.
- Email addresses will always end in @nzta.govt.nz, @enews.nzta.govt.nz or @reply.nzta.govt.nz.
- The email may be missing specific details that the NZTA will have on file: such as your plate number, the date your vehicle license is due and vehicle make and model.
- Hover over buttons and links to see if the pop-up will take you to a genuine government (.govt.nz) website
Neighbourly will update this message as further information comes to hand.

Well done composting 3,558 tonnes of food scraps with Auckland Council. You’ve kept the weight of 593 elephants from landfill.
Using the food scraps bin a tiny bit will save you money on rubbish bin tags because you won’t have to put your bin out as often.
Together we can protect our land… View moreWell done composting 3,558 tonnes of food scraps with Auckland Council. You’ve kept the weight of 593 elephants from landfill.
