Hey guys, are you thinking about Valentine's Day? Do you have something fun planned? Although we can't help you with the actual holiday (we believe in you, you've got this), we can suggest that you bring her dancing the day after! It's a great way to round out the holiday!
But what if you're single? You can't come... Just kidding! Only kidding! There will be plenty of other single folks to mingle and dance with and as always, it will be loads of fun!
Dancing will start around 8pm or shortly thereafter and is just $5/person.
In addition, we thought we'd do something a little different this time and will be offering a 1 hour Balboa lesson from 7-8pm. This class will be $5/person ($10 for the whole evening).
If we had to pick a favorite of the swing dance styles, it would probably be Balboa. This lovely dance was developed out of necessity back in the day as dance floors became too crowded to swing out or do many of the animated moves we're accustomed to implementing in our swing dancing today. Although originally done in confined spaces, Balboa is so much fun and can be danced just about anywhere and to a variety of music. Not sure what it looks like? Check out this spectacular example! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQtpZMUjE6M Fun fact, the woman with the long dark hair in the final demo is Sylvia Sykes who was one of the "original" Balboa dancers and has danced with many of the people who invented the dance!
Important caveat; Balboa is a close dance and we recommend being comfortable remaining in close embrace with different people as we will probably ask you to rotate during the lesson. If you're not comfortable with this idea, feel free to message us to schedule your own private lesson.
We're excited to introduce you to this dance and hope many of you will fall in love with it like we have! Please show up on time if you plan to participate in the lesson as we won't be able to backtrack for latecomers.
As always, this is an alcohol-free, family friendly event that's fun for all ages.
$5 for the dance from 8-11, an additional $5 for the Balboa lesson at 7pm
