Well as the lights go down on our beautiful school we think back to the magical moments that made the journey so special.

Dancewell Studios will officially close after tomorrow night.

What do you say when it's all done!

Thanks for the memories everyone.

It's been a blast 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Round 2 Inter-Studio Dance Festival Cancelled!

Dear friends,
It is with much regret that I inform you we have had to cancel next weekend's Inter-Studio Dance Festival in Hamilton due to a lack of entries.
The recent financial downturn, covid reinfections and a lack of students within our studios have all combined to make it impossible to run the event.

All people that have entered will receive an email explaining the situation and a full refund will be offered.

Both Tin and I would like to thank you very much for all your support during our attempt to help revitalize our Grassroots industry and help rebuild studios after the Covid Pandemic.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out and we will help in any way we can.

Take care and keep wearing your smile.

it's been fun!!
Marcus Ashwell (Fellow)

The New Rock'N'Roll section is also available which will be heaps of fun to watch and compete in.
We have studios from Hamilton, Tauranga, Kiri Kiri, Northland, Auckland, Pukekohe and other regions turning up to show their support for this wonderful grassroots event.

Hi Everyone!!
Thank you very much for all your patience whilst we managed to get our new (Industry Wide) online app for DanceSport competitions in New Zealand finally Up and Running!
Tina and I have been working on this with the developers for some months now and are so very proud that we have been able to take the current industry standard for online entries covering Jazz, Contemporary, Tap, Ballet and many other styles and bring Ballroom dancing into it as well. This transition to the web-based app was certainly not easy as Ballroom Dancing comes with some very complex issues that we managed to resolve after many conversations and the ability to teach our web developers how our industry actually works!
Some of you will be very familiar with the App and some of you will look at this for the first time and as expected, feel a little overwhelmed but, as with all things that are worthwhile, we all need to educate ourselves and our students on this system as this is clearly the way forward for online entries, instant result sharing (Once events go live), point system based awards and industry-wide connectivity.
So, let’s jump into the future together and get started!
Please go to the below link and download the App (The app is best used on your mobile device but you can use the link again to access your account via your laptop)

A few notes on our entry system.
The system is run on scripts that fire every few minutes and sort all dances into order and work out if they are in or on the waitlist. Then a further script to show the buttons runs every minute. This means depending on when you click there are delays in buttons appearing. It also means you may get to the dance details and some dances you clicked have not been sorted and shown yet. Dont panic. Just wait and they will appear. If you are worried you can go back to enter now.

With a heavy heart, I let our dancing family know that we lost a real lady of the Ballroom last weekend.

Samantha Stacey (McMillian) passed last weekend quite unexpectedly.

Sam was a huge part of the Dancewell family for many years and supported everything we did from grassroots recreational DanceSport to Medals.

The one thing that hits me every time I think of Sam is her lust for life, her infectious Laugh and her need to always have a smile on her face so you couldn’t help but smile back.

If it was bumping into her in the street, at field days or some other random place she might just be haunting with her husband Gavin Stacey, her smile was always with her.

My most fond memory of Sam was having Maurice Taylor (World Champion Ballroom dancer) give her a standing ovation (Which I had never seen before or probably will ever again) for her Gold New Vogue medal (as pictured in her beautiful black and white dress) in Tuakau.

Our hearts and thoughts are with Gavin and the family during these reflective times and I just wanted to say “Travel well Sam and give them hell” You will always be in our hearts and never forgotten darling. 🥰

Please PM me if you want to attend Sam’s funeral service this Saturday in Hamilton and I will forward the details.

It's the event of 2022!
