We’re proud to present a 2-day series of free workshops dedicated to the foundations of ballroom culture and categories.
📅 October 11 & 12
📍 Cowels Center Studio 6B
🎟 Free & open to all – register through the link in bio
This intensive was born from our desire to provide dynamic ballroom education in the Twin Cities. Ballroom is more than performance—it’s history, legacy, and community. By creating space for teaching and exchange, we hope to make sure that our local scene not only shines, but also grows with a strong foundation of knowledge, respect, and skill.
Education is the first “E” in our mission. To know where you’re going, you have to know where things come from—who built the culture, how the categories developed, and why they matter. This is about honoring tradition while empowering the next generation of Minnesota ballroom.
Come learn, grow, and connect with the MN Ballroom community in a space that celebrates self-expression, history, and joy.
Special thank you to our sponsor @RedDoorClinic for supporting this work and collaboration. ❤️
Oldway w/ Jojo Ninja
“Oldway is one of the original forms of vogue—rooted in poses, sharp lines, symmetry, and grace. Think hieroglyphics, fashion model poses, and martial arts precision. Learn the foundation with Jojo Ninja ✨”
Runway w/ Reu Balenciaga
“Runway is about commanding presence and serving fashion. In ballroom, Runway has several categories: European (fluid and modelesque), All-American (powerful, dramatic), Femme Queen (feminine, unapologetic). Learn how to strut with Reu Balenciaga 💫”
New Way w/ Edward 007
“New Way vogue is all about flexibility, precision, and illusion. Lines, contortions, and mind-bending arm control. Explore how to stretch your creativity and your body with Scott 007 🔥”
Face w/ Vanity 007
“In ballroom, Face is everything—the skin, bone structure, symmetry, attitude, and aura. It’s about confidence and owning your beauty. Vanity 007 will guide you through what it means to serve Face 💎”
Sex Siren w/ Leo 007
“Sex Siren celebrates sensuality, confidence, and body awareness. It’s about commanding the room through allure, movement, and presence—owning your desirability. Learn from Leo 007 🖤”
Vogue Femme w/ Chachi Demure Versailles
“Vogue Femme is the most popular style of vogue today—fluid, dramatic, fierce, and expressive. Chachi Demir Versailles, known for precision and performance, will take you into the core elements of Femme ⚡️”
Kiki Lounge Session
“After the workshops, join us for a Kiki Lounge Session—an open space to practice, exchange, and connect with community. 🪩✨”
