โข Directly into the music โ no opening lesson.
โข Only partner dancing โ no separate space for "solo ecstatic-style" dance.
โข A smaller chill zone
(This new format helps us keep bringing you monthly Fusion events sustainably!)
Our Fusion Dance venue is uniqueโbe sure to read our community agreements (listed below) before attending. Also, please note that our particular vibe is on the sultry sideโthe music will be a varied mix of modern downtempo & midtempo beats.
Fusion Dance is simply fusing your movement with any dance partner to any music. It is improvisationalโthere is no choreography or "right and wrong" moves, as long as you are attuned to both your partner and the music. It welcomes elements from Blues Dance, Tango, Lindy Hop, West Coast Swing, Waltz, other ballroom dances, and even Contact Improv.
Odd Fellows Hall (upstairs), 223 SW 2nd St, Corvallis
Pay by cash or Venmo at the door
โข $10โ15 per person (sliding scale)
โข $5โ10 for BIPOC people, full-time students (with ID), or Oregon Trail Card holders
Your generosity creates sustainable events!

OUR COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS
โฆพ No Street Shoes: We encourage bare feet, socks, or dance paws! Non-marking soft-soled shoes or ballroom shoes are also acceptable. No shoes that have been worn on the street and no boots.
โฆพ Don't Spread Covid: Masks are optional and welcome. Do not attend if you have ANY symptoms of respiratory illness or had direct exposure to covid in the last week.
โฆพ Honor Fusion Floorcraft: Floorcraft is basic dance navigation and etiquette, with an emphasis on avoiding collisions. For everyone's safety, rolling on the ground and lifting/flying are not permitted in this space. Please join us because you want to improvise in a grounded partner frame (rather than straight-up Contact Improv).
โฆพ Be Inclusive: All are welcome. We dance free of normative gender roles.
โฆพ Be Clear Minded: We dance free of alcohol and other inebriating substances.
โฆพ Be Clean: Please arrive fresh with a clean body and clothes, as some of us are very sensitive to strong body odors or any scented products (including essential oils).
