Balboa, balboa, balboa, it’s really the buzz word right now and this weekend we have a workshop with England’s  ‘Mr. Balboa’ – the great Dan Guest. He is Britain’s busiest teacher of Balboa but we have managed to pin him down to share some of his knowledge with you. Time to get a taste of this wonderful dance we all love so much. Don’t we just spoil you? Oh yes we do. Register now to avoid disappointment.

AND…If you were in any doubt whatsoever as to precisely how cool Balboa is, then check out this clip of Mickey Fortenasce & Kelly Arsenault at EBC 2009.  Doing the Bal to a pretty unexpected soundtrack…See you on Saturday, mullets optional.

Hands up if you enjoyed the Balboa workshop with Joel Plys and Evita Arce last night. Mmmm….learning Balboa from two international stars? Who wouldn’t enjoy that? Well,we thought any Spotify users among you might appreciate a Spotify playlist with some Balboa – slow and fast, new and old. Enjoy!

All you new Bal addicts should hurry and get signed up for Balboa: Beyond the Basics workshop with Heidi Salerno and Steve Garrett on the 4th March. Famous for their amazing and creative footwork, Steve & Heidi teach Balboa as it was done by the old-timers and Bal-Swing & LA Style Lindy Hop with their very own style and flair and what they call JitterBal, their fun and exciting combination between Balboa and Lindy Hop. They ALSO broke the Guinness World Record for “Most Dance Spins by a Couple in a Minute”  at Balboa on the River in Brisbane, Australia on September 18, 2009.  The old record….a dizzying 113 was upped by Heidi & Steve to 116 Spins in a minute! If you don’t believe me, watch them in action here.

Don’t miss out on this great opportunity to carry on improving your Balboa. Register now!
