The Night Owls

The Night Owls We teach blues and swing dancing, organise social dancing, celebrate live music and honour the rich legacy of jazz and blues in Melbourne, Australia.

We acknowledge that we participate as guests in the living culture of Blues music and dance which was created by African American communities from the earliest part of the twentieth century. These art forms represent a triumph of human spirit, courage, creativity and resilience and we dance every step with gratitude and humility to the originators of the Blues. The Night Owls school organises regu

lar blues workshops for all levels of dancer, high energy live social nights and special events throughout the year. We aim to create an inclusive, welcoming environment where anyone can come and learn this wonderful art form and participate in our vibrant and passionate community. We welcome all genders and invite any person to lead or follow or both!
