A practica is a great place to practice and dance with others.

Leading and following in Bachata requires a special kind of connection and sensitivity to your partner. Here we are teaching at @atomicballroom in Irvine several years back. ๐ฉทโจ
This is West Coast Swing ~ and this particular dance (done by Rachel Hayes and Isaiah Meders) is commonly known as, โlate nightโ dancing. ๐ซ
At West Coast Swing conventions, dancers from all over the world get to experience social dancing for hours, and hours on end.
When it reaches into the early hours of the morning (most of the time past midnight or even 2 AM) a more mellow or โgooeyโ genre of music is played and dancers are able to express themselves with more freedom and longevity to their movement. โจ
We hope youโll join us in Chico this weekend for a West Coast Swing dance workshop. Yes, anyone, absolutely anyone can learn this dance. All you have to do is show up to class. ๐
See you soon โจ

A little repost from last year ~ Weโre hoping that the heat wave coming into Chico this week will give us plenty of motivation to get around some water! Beaches, lakes, and rivers, we love them all ๐๏ธ ๐ ๐ถ ๐ฃ โจ
Catch us dancing in the downtown Chico City Plaza on Sundays at 7pm! Salsa En La Plaza 2023 - Free Dance Event ๐๐บโค๏ธ
We love dancing to live music because we never know whatโs coming next ~ Live musicians have a way of slowing down the rhythm, speeding it up, changing the energy at any given moment - Itโs such a thrill to be dancing to a song that has never been played, in that exact way, ever before. โค๏ธ๐ถ
Here we are dancing Fusion circa 2019 @cafesevilla in San Diego ~ If you look closely, we are fusing together movements from #Salsa, #ArgentineTango, and quite arguably a bit of #WestCoastSwing ๐ All improvised in real time. โจ
