YEARLY EVENTS

For details on smaller, more frequent events such as circling, please keep an eye on our social media, especially our Instagram page. Here are the big events we aim to do every year so you know what to look forward to!

TERMLY

Bring a Bestie Week
Every term in Week 7 we hold our Bring a Bestie Week - previously known as Bring a Boy week but updated to bring it into 2022! In this week, we highly encourage you to bring a friend along to our lessons so they can get a taster of WPAA and have some fun in the name of charity! All lessons are £2 per person, so please remember to bring cash!
We switch up the number of spaces in our signups so that only you need to sign up for the both of you - no membership required for your bestie!
We also aim to hold other fundraising events throughout this week and around it, so keep an eye out for those events!

Christmas Curry

What better way to get into the festive spirit than with a delicious curry? Typically taking place in the weekend of Week 9, we’ll all be heading to Leamington Spa for a lovely meal at King Baba’s. All you need to do in the run-up is let us know you’re coming so we know how many to book for, then just bring yourself, some cash and BYOB! We’ll also be coordinating everyone as best we can to try and make sure everyone gets on the same bus so please don’t worry about getting lost!

​

Christmas Showcase

Also typically in the weekend of Week 9, we have our awesome Christmas Showcase! This is a great performance opportunity if you feel like it, but it’s also a great opportunity to show support for your fellow WPAA members! The showcase is held in the SU Atrium and attendance is completely free, so feel free to bring your friends along for support. In the run-up to this showcase, we’ll be putting together a fun beginner’s routine for each equipment that we’ll be optionally teaching in beginner’s classes. Beginners can then perform this routine in the showcase if they like, but there’s no pressure!

TERM 1

TERM 2

Kit Orders
Want to rep WPAA wherever you go? Or maybe you’d like a cute matching set of pole or aerial kit? Either way, we’ll be organising some orders throughout Term 2 to bring you all the clothes you desire at discounted prices! We’ll be ordering some cosy custom hoodies and joggers, as well as organising an order with Creatures of XIX, a well-known aerial and pole kit brand. We’ll also be offering a discount for Hoodlum Fang, an awesome UK-based small business that makes custom kit by hand!

Elections
In late Term 2 we’ll be holding our elections! If you’ve been enjoying your time at WPAA and want to become part of the team that runs this lovely society, here’s where you can do exactly that. It’s also where you can have your say and vote for who you want to be your exec for the coming year.

Formal Meal
It’s near the end of Term 2 and it's time to dress nice and fancy (a very rare sight for most WPAA members) at the Formal Meal! We’ll be having a lovely 3-course meal at the Chesford Grange Hotel - a frequent location of Warwick society formals, balls and other events, easy to get to on the 11 bus, which we’ll be coordinating to make sure everyone gets there okay! Tickets are typically about £25 and we’ll need you to send us your meal choices ahead of time, but we’ll always leave as much time as we can so you don’t have to worry about rushing.

Summer Picnic
When Term 3 and all its exams and deadlines hit, what better way to take a load off and relax than a picnic? We’ll be booking the Oculus Green and bringing the equipment out so you can chill on the grass, have some snacks and have a little jam on the equipment!

Summer Showcase
We’ll be rounding off the year with a bang at our Summer Showcase, the best place to show off everything you’ve learned! Typically taking place on the weekend of Week 8 or 9, we’ll be having our showcase in the SU Atrium, and attendance is completely free once again. There’ll be plenty of extra jams within Term 3 for you to work on a routine (if you’d like to), and our teachers are happy to help where they can! The Summer Showcase is a great way to show your creativity with a routine, and impress your friend with all the cool things you’ve been learning with WPAA. There’s also no pressure to perform and you can back out any time you want, including right before you go on stage! The audience will be full of WPAA members ready to cheer everyone on!
