DHSDC's Introduction to Balboa - May 2026

This open choreography class explores a variety of music genres and dance styles, with each session focusing on a new concept to help dancers expand their versatility, musicality, and performance quality while stepping outside their comfort zone. Designed primarily for dancers with some experience (intermediate level), the choreography may require coordination, retention, and performance skills; however, motivated beginners are absolutely welcome — come ready for a fun challenge and a chance to push your limits.

Celebrate Mother’s Day through movement, culture, and connection at this special low‑impact Sri Lankan dance workshop, created with older community members in mind — and perfect for younger people who want to share a meaningful experience with their parents or elders. Sri lankan dance is traditionally known for its grace, rhythm, and expressive storytelling. In this workshop, we honour those traditions while adapting movements to be accessible, slow‑paced, and supportive for all bodies. No dance experience is needed — just a willingness to explore, smile, and share space with others.
