We're excited to share a space for our community around social partner dancing that encourages connection and learning in a safe and supportive space.
📍 Venue: Murmurations Aerial Dance - 208 Flynn Ave #3i, Burlington, VT 05401
(Entrance at the south end of the 208 Flynn Ave building, shared space with Nomad Coffee!)
✨ Theme: Learning to Fly
Wings, birds, pilots, sky vibes, superheroes, astronauts, or anything that says lift-off. Go literal, go abstract, or skip entirely.
💃 Workshop: Lifts and Dips with Lucas-Michael Jones (By special request!)
In this workshop we’ll focus on how to incorporate lifts and dips in partner dance in a way that’s safe, comfortable, and looks great. We’ll cover clear communication and consent, smart body mechanics, stable connection, and options for different experience levels. Expect practical technique you can use right away, plus variations to match your style.
⭐ Special Techniques Opportunity: If you want more time with these skills, there will be a special extended workshop on the afternoon of Saturday the 7th at the Performing Arts Hub in Montpelier. We’ll post a separate event with the link soon, for anyone who wants an even deeper dive (or dip) into these techniques.
🎶 Social Dance: After the workshop, enjoy a night of fusion social dancing with a versatile playlist featuring West Coast Swing, Blues, Tango, Waltz, and more.
⚕️ Health and Safety: Please join us only if you're feeling well. Masks are optional, and we respect everyone’s personal choice. No vaccination proof required.
👟 Footwear Reminder: Bring clean, soft-soled, non-marking shoes to keep the floor and your moves in top form.
⚠️ THIS IS SUPER IMPORTANT! We’ve had past issues with scuffing and floor damage. Please double-check your shoes to help us care for this beautiful space and ensure we can continue dancing at Murmurations.
💸 Cover: Sliding scale contribution of $10–$20 to support the venue and event.
Let’s gather to honor the stillness of winter and the spark of community. See you on the dance floor! ❄️💃🕺✨
