so much to everyone who attended and supported the Virtually All Slow Bal weekend and helped to create such a fabulous event… :-). more...
Well over 200 dancers booked, from over 30 countries, with every continent represented (except Antarctica). Amazing for a style that is still relatively new to many!
Our teachers were brilliant, so a huge thank you to Shani, Jacob, Kelly, Mickey, Olga, Andreas, Anni and Gasper. Superb classes from all, in spite of such difficult circumstances.
We look forward to seeing you at one of our events planned for next year, and sincerely hope that things will be considerably more settled at that time...

A whole weekend of Slow Bal in a fabulous sea front hotel right on the water's edge with stunning views over Torquay bay...
Covid-19 Message: Although there is still much uncertainty regarding Covid-19 we sincerely hope that the Covid situation will be sufficiently under control for this event to be able to run. We can't wait to be able to meet up in person for classes and dancing. Whilst thinking positively, the safety of all concerned is paramount, and we are keeping a watchful eye on Covid-19 developments. Whatever happens we will do our very best to make sure our teachers are able to earn what they can at this very difficult time.
We look forward to... World class Slow Bal tuition, comfy accommodation, great food, and everything under one roof, what's not to love!

You are likely to have done at least a term of regular classes, attended a full weekend of Slow Bal, or a combination of similar.
Teachers: TBA
We had reduced the event to just one pair of teachers due to ongoing uncertainty around the Covid-19 situation. Having recently reviewed the situation, we will unfortunately not be able to reinstate the second stream which would have been geared towards beginners or those who might only have done a taster class or two. We look forward to running two streams in 2022.
Please contact us to be the first to hear when bookings will open for this event, as well as other Balboa dance weekends that we run.
Martyn, Sue, Tony and Anna also run the following residential dance weekends
