The dancehall hostel was officially opened five years ago, however the dancers 'hang out' began in December 2017, and is a colloborative effort betwen, Gordon's Dancehall Hostel and Orville Hall's Dance Xpressionz.

The event, which takes place every fortnight, has already become a staple for dancers and patrons around the entertainment circle.
