We're bringing Grace Babbes and Blake Thiessen to Melbourne for a two-day dedicated Balboa camp - and honestly, we're pretty excited about it. This is not a social. This is not a drop-in class.
It's a weekend for dancers who love Balboa and want more of it.

Melbourne Balboa Camp. The first edition.
We'll see you on the floor.
*Safer Spaces Community Agreement*
Melbourne Balboa Camp is commited to creating a welcoming, respectful, and inclusive environment for all participants.
A few things we take seriously:
- Consent is everything. A dance is an invitation, not an entitlement. "No" is a complete sentence.
- Balboa is a close-embrace dance. That closeness is about connection, not permission. Check in with your partner.
- No unsolicited teaching on the dance floor. Save that for the teachers.
- Everyone has a right to feel safe. We will have a dedicated Safer Spaces Team on site throughout the weekend.
A full Safer Spaces Community Agreement will be shared with all participants before the event. If you have any questions or concerns at any time, reach out to us at [email protected]
