The Balboa Reset

The Balboa Reset

OMG yes, yes, yes. Gio and Gloria are back to Stockholm! 

Are you ready to transform your Balboa? No, kidding! This is what you should expect. If you feel sad with your dancing after a workshop, or the workshop’s material does not make a change in your dance, the Balboa Reset will be a game-changer for you! 

With a revolutionary teaching method Gio and Gloria will guide you to find confort, self-confidence and the right feeling.  Do not expect to learn intricate figures, choreography or variations… how many have learnt and forgot already?! At the Balboa Reset you will get instead a deeper feeling for what lead and follow is all about, and you can later develop the dance and flow on the dance floor as you like.

Do you need to work hard? No! It’s the opposite! With the right mindset you can slide in to the new version of yourself very easily! Through exercises you will get first a feeling for several aspects of the dance and then you will have them broken down for you. Basically the opposite of a traditional workshop! 

Sounds too good to be true? Ask former participants!

So, what’s the plan? Well, on Friday you can warm up with a party; because…. it’s fun! This is Friday Night Shuffle, the monthly social dance for the Balboa cats in Stockholm. The entrance fee is not included in the workshop price and is 80 SEK for non-members of the Swedish Swing Society and 40 SEK for the members.

Then on Saturday and Sunday you will start the reset! The schedule is chill, consisting of 4 hours and 50 minutes of workshop:

two groups: intermediate and intermediate/advanced

 two reset classes per group and - to finish up the weekend - one extra class joint by both groups 

Saturday evening is time for “Keep it Casual”! Yeaah!  you can social dance to the energetic upbeat music played at Bobby McGee’s - the iconic Los Angeles meeting place for the original Balboa dancers. Smooth Baby!
