About this Event

OUR LAST EVENT AT THE BERKELEY ALEMBIC...We are moving to Arthaus Studios in Oakland in August onwards (2nd Fridays!). Come enjoy this gorgeous venue for one last time!
Fusion is a style of partner dancing that blends elements from various dance genres and values improvisation, musicality, and connection with the partner.😊NO experience or partner required for this event - come as you are, take the class, meet people at the tea lounge 🍵🫖, or stay on the dance floor until the end!
Co-hosted by GoenEvents, a dance organizer with focus on creating meaningful encounters, and The Berkeley Alembic, a nonprofit center committed to body-mind transformation, this event is designed to bring movers of all backgrounds together, uniting them in a ✨shared journey of creative expression✨.

Fancy Moves You Can Do From The Sweetheart Position
by Sienne and Sayaka
While "the sweetheart position" may be a standard vocabulary in your Fusion dance, we want to introduce you a few very cool moves (borrowed from Bachata and Brazilian Zouk!) you can do out of this to hit the musical note right when you want to. Includes half-turn drills for everyone, and a quick review of how to get into sweetheart for those who need it, and we will mention some variations for those who are more experienced to add flare and fun!
