Aligned Dance

24/01/2026

Ready to kick up your heels, Melbourne? I’m Matt from Aligned Dance — if you want a fun, friendly way to get fit, meet people, and learn new moves, come to one of our local line dancing sessions! Whether you’re an absolute beginner or already know a few steps, our classes and socials are designed to be inclusive, upbeat, and low-pressure.

Why try line dancing with us? It’s a great workout (100–250 calories per 30 minutes), boosts your mood, and helps you build confidence — no partner, boots, or experience required. Pop in to a beginner night, bring a friend, or just try a class on your own — we’ll make you feel welcome.

Want to find a session near you across Melbourne? Check our guide and upcoming events — we’re excited to dance with you! 💃🕺
