Preserving Heritage Through Dance and Dhime

Newa Guthi Victoria is proud to continue its commitment to preserving and promoting Newa culture in Melbourne through regular Newa Dance and Dhime classes.

These classes provide an opportunity for children, young people and community members to learn traditional Newa dance, Dhime music and cultural practices in a welcoming community environment.

The classes are not only about learning dance steps or musical rhythms—they are about connecting with our heritage, passing knowledge to the next generation and building a stronger community.

💃 Newa Dance Classes

Regular dance sessions are conducted at multiple locations in Glenroy and Truganina, offering students the opportunity to learn and practise traditional Newa dance.

🥁 Dhime Classes

Newa Guthi Victoria also runs regular Dhime classes for learners of different ages, helping preserve one of the most recognisable sounds of Newa culture.

👦 Kids’ Dhime Class

Special Kids’ Dhime Classes provide younger learners with an early introduction to traditional Newa music and rhythm in a supportive environment.

Through these ongoing classes, Newa Guthi Victoria is helping ensure that Newa traditions remain vibrant and continue to be passed from one generation to the next.

Preserving Heritage. Building Community.
