What is Shuffle Café?
A relaxing, open-space social dance here in Vienna, happening every Wednesday.
Why Shuffle? Balboa is a shuffling dance, mostly danced in place to basically all tempos in swing music.
Laminu, developed in the late 1940’s and 50’s by Balboa dancers in Long Beach, Southern California, is a dance for slow Jazz and Blues music.
