As the level of the dancers improve, so does the figures performed become more elaborate and complicated and with the constant change of partner calls, make the dance fun and exciting for the dancers, as well as spectators who view the dance. **8.30pm – 9.30pm** **\*\*\* CLASS #3: BACHATA** *(Absolute Beginner to Improver Level)* \* No experience or partner necessary - all welcome \- Bachata is the second most popular Latin dance around the world after Salsa **CLASS COST:** Casual/Drop-in attendance: Any Main class - $20 per class Any 2 Classes on the night - $30 for both classes or Do ALL CLASSES on the night for only $35! ***\* Please note:*** We only accept **CASH** on this night **CLOTHING & SHOES:** Comfortable casual clothing.

What the #%\*@ is impact? In a world where corporations are judged on their social impact nations unite over goals for environmental sustainability and happiness is considered as a rival metric for a country’s GDP– organisations need to measure the impact their organisation has on the real-world, not just their own bottom line. But what even IS impact? Is it important for companies that don’t have social or environmental goals? How do you measure it? This workshop will first introduce the concept of Impact, followed by a dive into how it’s defined and measured around the world in a dozen different domains and ultimately how we might apply it to produce products that pack a punch. **Our facilitator** [JJ Monester](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jjmonester/) works as an Associate Product Manager for the non-profit news media company, The Conversation International, a company which democratises knowledge by bridging the gap between academic research and the general public. Having worked on products where providing evidence of Impact to customers is fundamental, he has gone deep into the complex and nuanced world of understanding what frameworks attempt to achieve. Grokking organisational impact is an area of learning JJ could get lost in, and possibly already has :-). As an area that he is spending time on in his day to day, yet still feeling like he’s a beginner, he’s very much looking forward to sharing what’s he learning and getting deeper into the concepts alongside you all. Let’s have fun together.

Dear property investor, **Note: please [register](https://events.resultsmentoring.com/escape.html?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=drn) to attend the workshop via Zoom.** If current market uncertainty has been making you hesitate or second-guess your next move, you’re not alone. Today's rate increase. Oil prices. Inflation pressure. Tax-policy debate. More noise, more uncertainty, and more investors sitting on their hands waiting for things to feel clearer. But **doing nothing is not a strategy**. That’s exactly why our sponsors at Results Mentoring are running a free live online workshop this Saturday: **Escape the Rat Race with Property in Uncertain Times** Saturday 21 March 10:00am-12:00pm AEDT **[Reserve your free seat here](https://events.resultsmentoring.com/escape.html?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=drn)** This session will be especially relevant if you’re trying to work out what to do next as an investor, renovator or developer. The Results team will cover: • why having your own **financial freedom plan** is even more important with the current economic uncertainty. • how big your portfolio needs to be to **replace your income** and **escape the rat race** • how to decide whether your next move should focus on **growth, cash flow**, or an **active deal** • which property strategies still make sense even if **tax settings change** • what real investors are doing right now to build **positive cash flow, faster equity growth**, and in some cases **6-figure profits in months** — or a path to **quitting their jobs within 5-10 years** And importantly, this won’t just be theory. They’ll unpack real case studies showing how Results members are applying these strategies in the current market. If you want more clarity, more confidence, and a better framework for your next move, join the online workshop this Saturday. **[Reserve your free seat here](https://events.resultsmentoring.com/escape.html?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=drn)**[ ](https://events.resultsmentoring.com/escape.html?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=drn) Best regards, – Tony **P.S.** Property investors who succeed long-term don’t wait for certainty — they build a plan and execute it. This workshop will show you **how to build that plan.**
