Birmingham Balboa Festival – 8/9 October 2011

We’re getting really excited about our plans for an awesome event we’re planning for October featuring teachers Mel and Jo Calanglang from London.

Aimed at beginners and improvers the Birmingham Balboa Festival will be Birmingham’s first ever weekend swing dance workshop and will coincide with Hot Ginger’s regular swing dance event on Saturday 8th October.

We’re in the final stages of planning and are firming up our venue and a brilliant live band for the evening dance, but we can tell you that you will get to experience around 8 hours of classes over the weekend from two of the UK’s best Balboa dancers.

We’ll open bookings in May, so save the date!

In the meantime you can check out this video of Mel and Jo Calanglang at a recent event in Leeds.
