Introduction to Balboa: 6:45 – 7:45 PM
If you seek connect another way, dance to faster music, or expand your dance vocabulary, this is a prime opportunity! Balboa in its pure form is an intrinsically simple dance, but as the dance evolved in the context of swing it became a vibrant combination of steps, turns, variations—widely known as Bal-Swing. All forms of Balboa can be danced at a wide variety of tempos, and in combination with other dance styles. Come to refresh your dance journey!
It is recommended you have some familiarity with dancing in time while connected with a partner, before taking this class, but all levels are welcome. This progressive series will prepare you to dance socially with swing dancers everywhere. No partner required! We are friendly social group and will rotate partners in class.
(Tip: Next month: more Balboa! Break in your skills in preparation for All Balboa Weekend in Cleveland!)

Whether you’ve been coming to the March lessons or have some prior dance experience, Beyond the Basics aims to provide valuable knowledge and encourage exploration beyond the class itself. This 4-week series expands on the basic Lindy Hop fundamentals, while providing structure to facilitate “in the moment” reaction and expression with your partner. This class series will prepare you to dance socially with swing dancers from Columbus and around the world.
This class series is designed for dancers who have taken Introduction to Lindy Hop or have a good basic understanding of the rhythms and mechanics of the dance. No partner required! We are friendly social group and will rotate partners in class.
