Originated from Balboa Island, California where the dance floors were so overcrowded a 'closed' dance-style with lots of footwork (although the feet hardly leave the floor) the upper body remains still and the dance doesn't travel much around the room, similar in style to shag but without such exuberant foot-work. 

Rita and Barry currently run blocks of classes at Bramcote Memorial Hall on Wednesday evenings.  The next set are scheduled to run in the new year.  If you'd like more information please contact us.
