6-Week Beginner Balboa Course

Ready to dive into Balboa? Join Nicole & Sea for a 6-week beginner’s block covering all the fundamentals to get you social dancing with confidence!

Balboa emerged in Southern California during the swing era of the 1930s and 40s, growing alongside the rich tradition of Black American jazz music and dance culture. Rooted in the same cultural movement that gave rise to Lindy Hop and other swing dances, Balboa carries the energy, creativity, and musicality of the jazz era onto the social dance floor.

FAQ:
Q: Do I need a partner?
A: Nope! We will be rotating in class and one of the great things about Lindy Hop is the chance to dance with as many people as possible!

Q: What should I wear?
A: Think active wear! Whatever you are comfortable to move freely in. If you have long hair, we recommend tying it up so that it leaves your back clear.

Q: What sort of shoes should I wear?
A: It's best to have slippery shoes for Balboa - avoid sneakers or super grippy shoes. If you don't have anything like that, you can bring a pair of socks to wear over your shoes!

Q: Anything else I should bring?
A: A water bottle is always a good idea.
