Slow Balboa is a variant of the Balboa swing dance that is perfect for ballads or slower swing and jazz tunes. It combines a perfect balance of the closeness and elegance of Waltz or Tango with a gentle sway akin to blues or slow dancing. The dance was developed around the timeless ballads of Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, and Patsy Cline. We will introduce the basic movements and give you and your partner a chance to connect to the music and each other. Come by yourself or bring a friend! No partner or experience required. Smooth-soled shoes are best.
