Want to add something special to your Sokkie dancing? The kind of moves that make people stop and watch? Then this is the workshop for you.
On Saturday 23 May, Matthew Pienaar from Sokkie Soutie is hosting a dedicated Tricks & Dips Workshop at Five6seven8 Dance Studio in Randburg. In just one hour, you’ll pick up the dips and tricks that take your social dancing from good to unforgettable.
What happens in the workshop?
This is a combined-level class — whether you’re a few months into your Sokkie journey or a seasoned social dancer, you’ll walk away with something new.
Matthew will walk you through:
- Dips — how to lead them cleanly and how to follow them safely
- Tricks that add wow factor without needing years of training
- The technique behind making dips feel effortless for both partners
- Variations you can mix and match on the social dance floor
No rehearsed routines. No choreography to memorise. Just real social dance tools you can use from the very next time you hit the floor.
Do I need to bring a partner?
We recommend booking with a partner — it helps to practise with someone you’re comfortable with. That said, if you’re flying solo, don’t let that stop you. Sign up on your own and we’ll do our best to pair you up on the day.
Stay for the Till L8 Sokkie Party
The workshop runs 5:00 – 6:00 PM, and the fun doesn’t stop there. Stick around afterwards for the Till L8 Sokkie Party — the perfect place to put your brand-new dips and tricks to use on the social dance floor.
