After last year’s epic turnout (over 100 dancers!), we’re bringing summer fusion at BLOX back 🥳 Come join us for some outdoor dancing right on the water 😍
💖 At this event, dancers of all styles are invited to come together and experience the magic of freestyle partner dancing. If you can partner dance, you can dance fusion!
What is fusion?*
✨ Fusion gets its name from fusing different styles of dance. Dancers draw upon their techniques from Ballroom, Bachata, Blues, Contact Improv, Forro, Kizomba, Lindy Hop, Salsa, Tango, West Coast Swing, Zouk, etc. to dance together to different kinds of music.
✨ It’s all about connecting to your partner and the music in the moment and seeing what happens.
✨It’s playful, it’s experimental. It’s really, really fun.
✨ It’s a lovely opportunity for us to bring different partner dance communities together under one roof.
💞 It's also a chance to shake off any unwanted baggage from other dance cultures. A key value of this event is that dance has no gender! We don't assume that someone leads or follows because of what they look like. Switching is highly encouraged.
💞 Consent culture will be highly prioritized at this event.
Please be kind to each other. If in doubt, talk it out!
