Here we go it's the start of the GLOBAL SHUFFLE MeetUp Season - Northern Summer 2011.

This is the Offical 2011 logo and all official meetups will have this located somewhere in their publicity flyers etc AND will be listed on this forum as legit.

You will be able to buy GSM hoodies with the logo and customize text to add your town.

And yes you can help support Global Shuffle MeetUps in your town by using the logo as a badge, sticker etc with YOUR TOWN on it.

REMEMBER: ONLY LEGIT MEETUPS WILL BE LISTED ON THIS FORUM

Please let us know if you want an official GLOBAL SHUFFLE MeetUp in your town, this (Northern) summer. We can plan 3-4 over summer for each town.

by **Garry** Wed 08 Jun 2011, 12:18

We will start a new thread for each town, so you can discuss local details.

We will pool information here that may be of assistance to those wanting to hold a GS meetup in their area.

This GS meetup season is going to be the first official meetup for many towns, so here's your chance to attend and get in the history books of shuffling.

Each GS meet up over summer will have people attending who are scouting for talent to be in GS2. We'll be posting youtube vids as well.

OFFICIAL [GSM]2011 CREW

We'll be setting up the official GSM organising crew which will oversee the global operations for summer 2011. We will have meetups occuring in different countries often at the same time, some will be shooting for GS2 others will have underground screenings of GS1.

So there's lots to do, and of course all crew members get the Underground Edition of GS1 and we will have GS1 Underground editon prizes for best Beginner and Best Advanced Shuffler on the day.

If you are interested please let me know in this thread.

We will be having Underground Screenings of Global Shuffle 1 at some meetups. All we need is a video projector and a screen - a white wall will work, with any sort of stereo sound system - lots of bass Smile

Check with the media dept at school, they might let you do a screening sometime and have space for a meetup.

Sounds like a good idea. There's a good chance. You folk up the coast tend to get into dance more than others.

What I'll do is get you to pm me your shipping address and I'll send you a dvd screener of GS1 with a letter to your teachers, so you can let them check it out (and you too of course and your folks) and see what you think about a meetup and screening at your school, a gym or basketball stadium with polished wooden floors is dance floor heaven, if they'l let you on it. Even school passageways are usually polished surfaces, so plenty of options to think about.

Also if they ok it, there's a good chance you'll be able to run other meetups there. They shuffle in Malaysia as a school sporting activity like martial arts, because of the physical disciplines involved, it's even recognised by the Malaysian Dance Sport organisations with Olympic standing or something. Shuffling can become an olympic sport basically.

So heaps of stuff that might interest your school.

It varies a lot depending on who's interested. For a new shuffle area, it could be 4-5 people for the first couple, which is okay because it gives you a chance to get to know each other and usually end up forming a crew.

Then they can expand to 100's

Cheers Garry. Did you get the pm?

by **Garry** Sun 12 Jun 2011, 08:36

yeah, check your inbox

I think one should be held in Hyde Park, I mean Sydney's one of the biggest Cities in Australia which would build up quite a crowd of shufflers

by **Garry** Thu 16 Jun 2011, 07:30

Sydney was also home to the DJ who tried to ban the Melbourne Shuffle 3 years ago because he didn't want anyone dancing on the dance floor, he wanted people to just stand in a crowd instead - because he got more money crowding people in and banning dancing.

So unfortunetly because Sydney is a big city doesn't mean they like the Melbourne Shuffle.

Count me inn!

What about Albury/Wadonga At the border of the Murray I'm sure i could find a great place seeing as there are hundreds of Outdoor Area's. All i'd have to do is inform the Council and see if its ok..

by Konsept Thu 16 Jun 2011, 17:40

there are shuffle meetup's in hyde park about every 2 months or whenever there is a public holiday.... the next one is on the 2nd of july at Hyde Park, Sydney. I go to them whenever i can. so far i've been to one and there was about 100+ people there Very Happy

by IRONMAAN Thu 16 Jun 2011, 17:45

If the city allows it we could have it inside the rivercenter mall here in San Antonio but i dont know how we would pull it off because if we do it we could get more than just shufflers we could get jumpers, tecktoniks, and industrial people just to show some diversity

by [HSF]Dante Thu 16 Jun 2011, 18:54

Konsept, I may be able to get to the Sydney one on my way back from Nelsons bay. DO they still do like..Just one shuffler by his/her self to show people their style? Or is that out-dated?

by Konsept Thu 16 Jun 2011, 19:54

nah it's more like music is constantly pumping and if you want to shuffle you just shuffle! no one tells you off for shuffling at all, everyone is shuffling at whatever point they want.... however sometimes people have battle and then yes, it's a two man game (:
Here is a link of the last one sydney had > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCzz0rSx81U you can see me at 0:12 in the photo closest to the camera. wearing jeans and white shoes XD sadly i couldnt find one vid of the day with me in it shuffling :L but oh well. next time im bringing people to record me Very Happy

Hope to see you there (:
