Rendezvous Raffle Balboa Workshop
Sat Sep 12 - Sun Sep 13
Every year, Joel & Alison run the Balboa Rendezvous - one of the largest
and most popular Balboa events in the world in San Diego, CA.
At the event they hold the Rendezvous Raffle where they donate a weekend
of instruction to growing Balboa communities.
There will be SIX hours of BALBOA FOUNDATION provided and TWO SPECIAL
ADVANCED WORKSHOPS.
Even if you are an INT/ADV dancer, you will want to register for the
full weekend as you are sure to learn something new about Balboa and
increase your Balboa dancing skill.
Joel & Alison's teaching style and knowledge of Balboa will guarantee an
amazing weekend for all that attend. It is always beneficial for the
INT/ADV dancers to be in the workshop so new dancers can understand the
dance quickly and therefore begin their love of Balboa...
