Dancing with strangers on Wellington's Cuba St
It’s just after midday on Wednesday and Marielle Estelle is wearing a white dress.
Carrying a $500 boom-box, two yellow signs, a water bottle and adorned in a kina ring she designed herself, Estelle walks down Cuba St in Wellington’s Te Aro with a smile.
She uses blue chalk to draw a large, uneven oval onto the cobblestone pavement alongside the words join the dance.
And then she starts to dance.
For the past 11 weeks she’s been coming to Cuba St during people’s lunch hour. She sees dancing as a way of making people relax and encourages everybody to give it a go.
