For those new to fusion and micro dance, here are some descriptions to help out…

Fusion Dance:
Fusion dance is a world in which everyone is free to express themselves through movement, regardless of their dance background and experience. Unlike more “codified” dances, fusion has relatively few technical limitations, for example there are no basic steps or predetermined passes. The movements are free, inspired or not by other dances, primarily driven by feeling, inspiration, connection with partners and music. Often danced in pairs in the configuration of a couple dance, it can also be danced solo, in threes, ... The principle of fusion is to create, to explore and to share on the music. Among the dances that can inspire the world of fusion are blues, tango, west coast swing, Brazilian zouk, kizomba, forró, trad, contact dance, solo dances...

Micro Dance:
Micro dance is based on the practice of small, often subtle movements. Breathing and isolations are tools that can be used in the experimentation of this dance. It allows one to focus on the listening of the music, one’s own movement and that of the partners. The subtlety of the movements provides the opportunity to develop intense connections and amplified sensations. It is difficult to describe this world in words or even to capture it in images. To truly discover it...come and experience.
