BALBOA Workshop THIS WEEKEND!

Balboa is a dance that originated in Southern California in the 1920’s and 1930’s. Mostly dancing chest to chest, it has a smooth style and now contains many “swing” style moves. The Beginner Balboa Workshop is perfect for the absolute beginner or those wanting to brush-up on their basics. We will teach you the basic steps of the Balboa for a great foundation and some moves to enable you to dance the night away in style.


Session 1: Getting The Basics Right
2:00pm - 3:30pm
This class is designed for absolute beginners who have never done any Balboa before. However, dancers who have done a basic Balboa class before will also benefit strongly from this class. Taking the time to master the Balboa Basic and the Break Turn will create a rock solid foundation for moving on to more exciting moves.


Session 2: Bal-Swing – Get Moving on the Floor
3:30pm - 5pm
Once you have the basics under your belt, you’ll be ready to move on to some Bal-Swing moves to get you moving on the dance floor. Throw-Outs and Lollies are fundamental moves that can be constantly varied to extend and personalise your Balboa.
