Fusion Dance NYC is proud to host a social dance with a true "Melting Pot" of different partner dance forms and musical genres. The Music: We play a variety of music, starting with a baseline of electronic sounds (because it is not already associated with any other dance form), and depending on the night may or may not include: Pop, Blues, Acoustic, WCS, Alt Tango, Zouk, Classical, Jazz, and whatever else we cook up. Check out some of the music we play: https://fusiondancenyc.com/the-music The Dancing: We use the many genres of partner dance to create personal, improvisational expressions of music. To us, this means breaking down the boundaries between dance forms to pick and choose which amongst the many different techniques we wish to employ at any given time. It also means bringing the partner dance community together under one roof to help foster endless possibilities of movement creation.
