It is sometimes hard to define exactly what makes for a great dance night...

At Sara White’s Blues Nites we believe that the perfect Blues Nite is a coming together of four essential elements:

The music...

Blues is a music-led dance. And the music needs to feed the soul. The perfect Blues night will include a broad range of expressive, interpretative music that captivates, inspires and challenges you and your partner to complement the music and each other.

And that music is carefully selected from a very broad spectrum of genre. During any given night you are likely to hear music chosen to encourage and complement Tango, Latin, WCS, Swing and Blues. You may hear 12-bar blues, rock, pop, country rock and blues, soul, ballads... just about anything that an experienced DJ can discover that will inspire you to express yourself, your experiences and your emotions through dance.

The DJs...

Each of our Blues DJs is selected for their skill, their passion for the Blues and because first and foremost, they are Blues dancers. And as dancers they understand firsthand how important it is to hear the right music at just the right time to create that perfect dance moment. Each of our DJs has their own unique style which sets them apart from each other and ahead of the pack. 

The ambience...

But even the best DJs playing the most exquisite music rely on the perfect ambience to help set the mood. At Sara White’s Blues Nites we use subtle, mood-enhancing lighting effects to create a welcoming, mellow atmosphere at each of our events. 

You, the dancers...

At our Blues events we strive to create an environment that encourages you to be the very best dancer you can be. To help create the situation where the music, the moment and the dancers combine to create that moment of Blues Bliss we all aspire to. You, the dancers, are the essential element that sparks the creation. We aim to provide you with the perfect set of circumstances to allow it to flourish.

There is often the misconception that Blues is synonymous with a slow, ponderous, grinding of the pelvic region of both partners. We beg to differ. Blues may be a sensual dance, but it does not begin and end with the pelvic grind. For an example of our interpretation of Blues, click the projector icon below...
