Thursdays:
- Intro to Balboa (lvl 1) 7pm
Instructor: Milo Saidl
Balboa is a partnered swing dance that originated in the 1930s in Southern California, particularly in the beachside resort named Balboa. Back in the day, crowded dance halls often had strict rules which prohibited the Charleston and other exuberant dances, so a dance which required very little space naturally evolved.
