Who are Footloose Rockers ??? Geoff & Sue Routh have taught dance for many years - 18 years ago, Geoff's first studio was "Rave on Rock N Roll" And they've been teaching together now for over 15 years under the "Footloose Rockers" banner Sue & Geoff are exceptionally well experienced teachers Footloose Rockers are holding a series of free Rock 'n' Roll socials & workshops throughout your week at Long Island Australia is blessed with many excellent Rock 'n' Roll & Swing dance teachers, but it's fair to say that Geoff & Sue are certainly "stand-outs" There's certain dancers where you just can't help but sit down, watch & enjoy And if you've been to Wintersun, then chances are that you've watched & admired Sue & Geoff dancing, without knowing who they were Good dancers don't necessarily make good teachers - but that's definitely not the case with Sue & Geoff And this is born out by the many dance competitions won by Footloose students Sue & Geoff instill a sense of fun & vitality into their workshops & social events - there's always a relaxed & friendly atmosphere And it doesn't matter if you're a couple or by yourself - because all dancers have the option of either rotating, or staying with their own partners Either way - you get to meet everybody So you'll be in "very good hands" with Footloose Rockers www.footlooserockers.com.au
