Swing Social: Balboa Edition with Matt & Angie
Mark your calendars for February 8, 2020!
Teachers of many and Winners of much, Matt and Angie are coming to Victoria to spread the Balboa rhythm around!
Angie Weddell and Matt Lam both started swing dancing in 2008 and have danced together ever since. They travel regularly to compete in and learn at Lindy Hop and Balboa events in Canada and the United States, both their focus remains in their home scene of Vancouver, BC, where they are founding members of the Vancouver Swing Society, a non-profit dedicated to the study and enjoyment of vintage swing dances.
Doesn't matter if you are new to Balboa or have been dancing Bal for years, there will be something for everyone at this event.
----------
4 Classes for everyone, plus one Challenge Class, and 1 Social Dance!
The first 4 classes are recommended for dancers who are comfortable with Balboa basics (up and down holds/regular and break rhythm), dancing Balboa socially, and have a desire to learn more and have fun.
The Challenge Class is recommended for dancers who have a combination of dancing experience and an enthusiasm for Balboa. You feel extremely comfortable dancing variety of tempos with a variety of partners and enjoy changing up footwork and moves to fit the music. To take this class, you must take the other 4 classes.
We understand if can be difficult to judge yourself. If you are unsure, ask a friend or send us a message or email.
