Pure Bal Crash Course Danced completely in closed position, pure Balboa evo=

space was limited. The ballrooms had strict codes of conduct that prohibite=
d the wild kicks of the Charleston and other exuberant dances. Pure Balboa =
is characterized by a fairly upright posture with both partners standing 't=
orso to torso' in close contact. The simplicity and economy of movement mak=
e it very well suited to fast tempo music. Balboa is often mistakenly thoug=
ht of as just a fast dance. Indeed many of the original dancers could dance=
 at amazing speeds. However, they also liked to dance to slower music and t=
he dance has always been done to music of all tempos including some improba=
bly slow tunes. Like the other crash courses; this class will start at the =
very beginning and is a good refresher course.=20

y as a partnered dance formerly referred to as the Bop; a smooth calm dance=
 of striding, gliding and dipping to music by popular African American big =
bands during the late 50's and early 60's In the 80's the Bop got a face li=
ft, a new identity and a new name currently known as Steppin. It had a new =
sound of music reserved solely for Steppin, a new identity, high fashion we=
ar, a smooth beat, and a cool smoothness about it like never before. The Af=
rican American community quickly adopted Steppin as its tradition and cultu=
ral history much like the Blues, Jazz, and R&B. Steppin can be done to a va=
riety of music but fits modern R & B very well! Dancers of any level will e=
