Slow Dancing for Swing Dancers

You want to “Entschleunigen your life”? Then learn how to dance to Slow Swing music!

If the music is really slow, you should try Laminu – and behold, Sandra & Axel are the very few persons on this planet teaching this dance!
This is an exceptional, elegant dance that provides you with the skills to swing it to slow tempo. Laminu is a sibling of Balboa from the late 1940ies and kind of an orphan dance – only very few people are still dancing Laminu, and Balboa, Baby! is one of the superfew who offer classes.

If the music is slow, but you almost want to do a Lindy to it, then Slow Balboa is your friend! This is a slow version of Balboa – hence the name – and can be danced to not-so-slow, but still mellow Swing music.

And sometimes, you need to take a dive into Blues to round up your skills.

This fall, we are offering a 6-weeks-course of Slow Dancing for Balboa dancers (aka Balboas).
