UQ Dance is the partner dance group at UQ St Lucia with an emphasis on styles including Swing, Latin, Ballroom, and Jive. Business inquiries welcome.
UQ Dance, a UQ Union affiliated club, is one of UQ's most active clubs. We aren't a group of professionals - just a bunch of students who love to socialize, have fun and shake that tail feather! Everybody is welcomed, and you don't need any experience - you don't even need to bring a partner. We continually rotate dancers so you'll have a chance to meet everyone. Find us outside the Student Union
