Shag & Balboa Theme Series

Open Level – Basics Required (prior experience in Shag & Balboa assumed)

A focused four-week series to refine rhythm, dynamics, and social-dance vocabulary. We’ll work on clarity, efficiency, and musical playfulness—keeping everything practical for the social floor.

Collegiate Shag
02.06. — Single Rhythm & Dynamics
Sharpen timing, bounce control, and dynamic range within single rhythm.
We’ll work on propulsion, relaxed speed, and making fast music feel easy and grounded.

09.06. — Simple Choreography & Combo Ideas
Compact combinations and transitions you can immediately use socially.
Focus on flow, phrasing, and mixing rhythmic textures without overloading patterns.

Balboa
23.06. — Pure Bal: Rhythms & Footwork
Deep dive into Pure Bal fundamentals: nuanced weight changes, rhythm variation, and efficient footwork.
Goal: more musical detail with less effort.

30.06. — Bal-Swing: Toss-Outs & Turns
Add expansion and elasticity to your dancing.
We’ll refine toss-outs, rotational ideas, and smooth transitions between closed and open energy.


Expect: technique refinement, musical awareness, and lots of high-tempo comfort—designed for dancers who already know the basics and want to level up their social dancing.
