G'day

Hi, I'm K — your Melbourne line dancing instructor

I started Boot Scooting Society for one simple reason: line dancing is ridiculously fun, and everyone deserves a go — no cowboy pedigree required.

There's no snobbery here and no "left foot, right foot" panic. Just banging tracks, easy steps broken down with a laugh, and a room full of people who were nervous ten minutes ago and are beaming now. Come solo, drag your mates, or make it a date night.

Instructing is my passion. Nothing beats watching someone find the beat, nail their first dance and light right up — my whole goal is to help you love dancing as much as I do.

Big love,

K

Where you'll find me dancing

Boot Scooting Society runs weekly and monthly sessions across Melbourne, and I travel for events right across Victoria. Every one of them is beginner-friendly — no partner, no experience, no worries.

  • Boot Scooting Sundays in the CBD! — Dsoul Dance Studio, 1/439 Elizabeth St, Melbourne VIC 3000 · Sundays 11:30am–12:30pm. Book on Humanitix
  • Victorian Pride Centre, St Kilda — our winter pop-up season, back next winter
  • Regional Victoria — country halls and pubs, including Ballan and Rosebud

More than a weekly class

A good chunk of what I do happens away from the regular sessions. I bring beginner-friendly boot scootin' to corporate team days and conferences, hen's parties, milestone birthdays and private celebrations, festivals and community events, and country towns across Victoria — anywhere a room full of people could do with getting off their chairs.

I came to this from a corporate career, so I’m easy to brief and reliable on the day — which is half the reason companies book us for offsites, conferences and Christmas parties.

Everyone on the floor

Boot Scooting Society is a women-owned, LGBTQIA+ friendly crew, and that isn't a footnote — it's the whole point. We dance in lines, not pairs, so nobody's left at the edge waiting to be picked. Rock up on your own and you'll fit right in.

You'll also find us out with No Borders No Judgement, our float group at the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.
