We're thrilled to have some summer visitors! Shake out the Blues with Tony Sciscio from Seattle, WA! And joining him is Pomona Lake, back from San Francisco, CA! Pomona previously organized Bearcat Blues and Salt Water Blues weekend in Vancouver! And now fuses and blueses from the Bay Area to Europe! Tony has travelled, danced, and worked events all over the US! One of the most stylish and effortless dancers you'll meet, don't miss this week!
If you love dancing with them and the blues, then head to Seattle this October!
Both Hi-Fi Fusion and Emerald City Blues Festival are back this year!
Blues dance is a collection of dances that developed in the American South along side Blues music. Grounded and rhythmically driven, the dynamic interplay between lead and follow makes it a perfect complement to Fusion.
Coalescence is a Fusion Social Dance on 1st, 3rd & 5th Sundays.
No partner necessary, come dance with everyone! We welcome all dancers, new and experienced from all styles.

Coalescence takes place on the stolen ancestral and traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ilw̓ətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples. As a settler-run group we strive to be allies in upholding Indigenous sovereignty, and welcome (without any obligation) teachings or input from Indigenous folks.
