Lente Sokkie - Spring social dance in Manly (Sydney)

Join us for a lively evening of food, drink, music, kuier, laughter, and dancing! This casual community event is open to everyone—families, friends, and anyone up for a good time.

Learn to Sokkie!

Sokkie is a fun, easy-to-learn South African partner dance that’s a bit like ballroom, but faster and a lot more fun!

We'll be playing the classic sokkie treffers, and there's a hard dance floor perfect for langarm, so come along and give it a go.
