🎙️ I wrote an article. I'd love you to read it.

It's about square dancing — the real kind, not the awkward PE class shuffle most of us remember from school. It covers why it's great for your body, your brain, and your social life. Why it works for singles, couples, families, and everyone in between. And why clubs like ours need people to show up and stick around while we find our feet.

If you've ever been even slightly curious, this is for you 👇

💛 National Volunteer Week is a reminder that strong communities are built by ordinary people who choose to show up.

At Atherton Square Dancers, we’re thankful for everyone who keeps community activities alive on the Tablelands by showing up, encouraging new dancers, bringing friends along, sharing a laugh, and creating welcoming spaces where people feel connected.

That’s what community clubs are really about.

Square dancing brings people together in a way that’s rare these days. It gets people active, laughing, learning, socialising and spending time together.

Over time, clubs like ours become more than just a place to dance. They become places where friendships form, confidence grows, and people know they belong.

But community clubs only survive when people support them and continue showing up for each other.

So this National Volunteer Week, we want to say thank you to everyone who helps build stronger, more connected communities across the Tablelands — especially our volunteers, supporters and dancers who help keep local community organisations alive.

Our community deserves spaces like this. 💚

If you’d like to be part of our community, join us on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of every month:

🕑 2pm–4pm
📍 84 Carrington Rd, Carrington

New dancers welcome.
No partner needed.
Come join the fun!
