workshop is going to blow your weekend out of orbit with many awesome
instructors, a large variety of live music, excellent DJs, and ofcourse, an
entire weekend filled to the brim with heaps and heaps of blues love.

Our goal is to highlight blues dancing as we experience it in today's social
scene. We're bringing in our favorite national social dancers to teach and
inspire you with what they do so well, connect and have fun on the social
dance floor. They'll share their ideas, techniques, moves, and
personalities with all of us, sending waves of inspiration and energy
through the entire weekend. You don't want to miss this!
