The great Sylvia Sykes and fabulous Marty Lau will be coming to Boston February 4-5, 2012 to teach a full weekend of glorious Balboa goodness! We are kicking it old-school this February, and you do NOT want to miss this.
Sylvia Sykes, the queen of Balboa, has been helping people find, learn and love Balboa since before some of you whippersnappers were born. She learned from many of the original Southern California dancers, she has a gift for teaching, and Balboa dancers everywhere owe her unending gratitude for translating the knowledge of the old-timers into something mortals can understand. Also, she's hilariously funny.
Leaders, you want to be smooth? Marty Lau, champion Balboa dancer, is always making it look good while still keepin' it casual. He's studied Balboa with some of the original 1930s dancers, and brings that vintage style with a modern energy to his dance. His classes with his wife Jen were some of our favorites in the past, but lately he's been in retirement (aka parenthood to adorable toddlers) so we're thrilled to have him teaching Balboa for us.
Sylvia and Marty will teach 8 workshops focused on improving technique and traditional Balboa aesthetics. Sylvia will also be available for private lessons -- contact her directly to schedule. (sylvia [at] sylviasykes [dot] com)
