We are very happy that we’re allowed to dance indoors again! In addition to the first Slow Bal Social, we will start with a refresher course for everyone who has danced Slow Bal before. After all, we haven’t danced for over a year! The course consists of five lessons of 1.5 hours. We first take care of the basics. Then we go over some well-known Slow Bal moves.

Day: Thursdays
When: 10 June, 17 June, 1 July, 8 July, 15 July
Time: 18.45 – 20.15 hr
Location: Cuartito Azul, Schoterbosstraat 17 Rotterdam

For the time being, dancing with a fixed partner is still mandatory. If you don’t have a partner of your own, we will try to match you.

Weekly classes

Regular classes start again in September. Registration will open at the end of July. Want to try out Slow Bal before the weekly classes start? We offer two beginner Slow Bal workshops on 24 July and 7 August. Click here for more info. 

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.
