 Instructors
We are honored to be bringing together instructors from all different types of social partner dancing styles that align with our vision.

All of our amazing instructors have some sort of fusion/freestyle aspect to their dancing and will only teach technique, musicality, or connection-oriented classes at Dance Blender, no pattern/choreo based classes will happen.

 Lessons
Each lesson at the festival is 90 minutes long, that way you and the instructors have plenty of time to dive deep into every topic, over 20 lessons! All the lessons will be on the themes of technique, musicality, or connection in social partner dancing and none of them will be pattern/choreo based. You will be shown and given the tools to create the dances you want between you and your dance partner(s).

 

 Music
We have looked far and wide for the perfect DJs and musicians to be part of Dance Blender. All of them are versatile in what they play and are ready to have the music dance your socks off, for over 20 hours of parties across two rooms!

We will be having two rooms during the main party with changing themes every hour throughout the night. These themes are dance style agnostic and the majority of the music played will not be of a particular dance style, more details to come.

 We are currently looking for some more DJs/music providers, if you see yourself as being one of our wonderful DJs/music providers then fill out this form! https://forms.gle/ZwQDQAG4XJU3W6Ar7

With Aux Gazelles being in the heart of Vienna it is very easy to get there. The closest metro stop is the U3 Metro stop Volkstheater, other metro stops close by are Karlsplatz U1 and U4, as well as Kettenbrückengasse U4. The closest tram stop is Burgring where the 1, 2, 71, D, and U2Z trams stop. The closest bus stop is Getreidemarkt of bus 57A.

The metro runs all night on Friday and Saturday but for other days where the metro runs until midnight the night bus line stop Museums Quartier is close by where night bus lines N46 and N49 stop.
