We love balboa and would love to see more balboa danced in our social scene 🙂
We are aiming this special class at swing dancers who know the balboa basic and are keen to gain confidence and vocabulary for their social dancing.
Come and explore just how fun, creative and musical balboa can be!

Monday nights
These classes are designed for dancers starting from scratch. They'll introduce the fundamentals of blues dancing, the basic shapes and some accessible moves you can use on the social dance floor. Each class will build up your blues vocabulary so you can start creating and improvising with your partner.
Expect to have fun and meet loads of new people, while you explore becoming a grounded, versatile and expressive dancer.
We'll also share some of the amazing artists who have created the blues and hope to inspire you to learn more about this rich, living culture.
