GREY PANTHERS 2025

GREY PANTHERS 2025

Over 60's Dance Troupe and Classes
 

Throughout the year, 2025
Tracks believe in dance as a whole-of-life activity. The Grey Panthers troupe for over 60's is a prime example of this. Established in 1988 it is arguably the longest continually running seniors community dance group in Australia, the group gathers for a weekly dance class every Friday morning February-December. As regular performers on the Darwin and surrounding region’s calendar, the group performs a mixture of repertoire and new works at charitable events and Senior-specific gatherings.

The group gathers for a weekly dance class in two locations: Darwin (Friday morning) and Batchelor (Wednesday morning), February - December. The group is available to perform a mixture of repertoire and new works, and relish the chance to perform at charitable events and Senior-specific gatherings.

David McMicken continues his weekly supplemental research and dance development group, dedicated to generating divergence and creative devising through improvisation, beyond the usual Grey Panthers class format.
