Weekly classes

Regular classes start again in September.

10-week beginner course Slow Bal

In the 10-week beginner course you will learn different versions of the basic steps, adding slides and extra steps to play with the music. You will become familiar with the close embrace that is so characteristic for this swing dance, but also explore options in open position. Building from our basic, we will add a variety moves to your repertoire. With a focus on balance and technique, Slow Bal is not only a beautiful dance on its own, but will also improve your other Swing dances.

10-week intermediate course Slow Bal (Group A)

Join our intermediate Group A class when you are familiar with the basic steps and shapes like the come around, slow out and swivels. In this course we will extend your slow swing repetoire with new shapes and exercises to improve your technique. 

10-week intermediate course Slow Bal (Group B)

You are a Slow Bal lover and want to learn more? Join this course if you have at least 6 months experience with Slow Bal (regular classes) and know your way around the dance floor with various shapes and techniques involved. We will work on improving shapes of previous courses as well as learning new ones. In this level we’ll also focus on smooth transitions.

Refresher classes

We are happy to share the news with you that we are allowed to dance again! These classes will take place under strict RIVM guidelines, but nonetheless we can’t wait to pick things up.
