Join ATX Fusion at Balance Dance Studios (Studio 8 in the Bravo building) on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of each month!
 
Join us for an evening of music that will inspire you to play with two ends of the dance spectrum: big and small! Alyssa & Sterling's sets will each embody this extreme contrast, with a mix of songs that encourage you to dance big and songs that encourage you to dance small. To prepare you for the evening, they'll be teaching a class at 8pm where they'll share ideas for dancing big (Alyssa) and dancing small (Sterling).

WHAT IS FUSION DANCING?
If you're unfamiliar with Fusion dancing, it's an improvisational environment where dancers from a variety of backgrounds come together to co-create, mix and match, and find common ground between dance styles and forms. Fusion dancers tend to be familiar with the basics of more than one partner dance (Blues, Tango, West Coast Swing, Zouk, Lindy Hop, etc.).
