Meet Cathy


A new face at Smooth Latin Groove

Cath Mish-Wills is a freelance Make-up Artist. She was introduced to dance as a teenager through Jazz Ballet. She then went on to study Belly Dance and performed professionally in New Zealand.

Cath’s first taste of Smooth Latin Groove came after being invited to a Friday night workshop on a blind date on her birthday.  Since that night she has been addicted to Latin Dance and can be now found behind the counter on Latin Event nights, or out on the dance floor. Right now she loves Salsa and enjoys many other Latin dance styles.

When not dancing Cath is often found chasing the train at Sushi bars. Now that she can master a few cool moves on the dance floor, Cath wants to visit Brazil, the home of Samba and Zouk.

With Cath at home with the SLG team, you will find her smiling face both in classes and greeting you when you come along for Tune-Up Sessions and Latin Dance Parties.



* Tune Ups

*Each Tune Up Dance Session includes a one hour Workshop in two levels, followed by over two hours of social practice time.


Each fortnight a new dance style is be focused on during the workshop. While workshops will vary from session to session each includes a social practice time in Salsa, Zouk and Gafieira Samba with a dash of Cha Cha Cha & Bachata
