What is Slow Balboa?
A beautiful slow dance that you should learn! There’s an entire page of this event website that describes the dance.
Will the music at the dances only be slow music?
No! We know that many of the dancers attending will know other forms of swing dance, and many dancers may be learning Slow Balboa for the first time. So, we intend to play a mix of tempos of music so that people familiar with Lindy Hop, Balboa, and Shag dancing will be able to dance those styles as well. That being said, we will have more slow dance music than most events so dancers can focus on doing more Slow Balboa.
Is there a masters level class?
There is a masters level for more advanced dancers with multiple years of experience with Slow Balboa, and it is open to people who are either invited or audition via submitting a video.
I already registered, how can I change my class level or sign up for the competition?
