Balboa tends to focus more on partner connection and small, subtle movements rather than big flashy one. As a result, viewed to be one of the most graceful forms of swing dance. While viewing Balboa choreography and socials is popular, it is better to be experienced and felt. It is widely considered a “dancer’s dance.” Scott discovered Balboa while dancing Lindy Hop and Blues in Philadelphia. His dance inspiration came from watching the now world renowned Balboa instructors Adam Speen and Nelle Cherry dance. He thinks Balboa is a perfect combination between Blues and Lindy Hop dancing. When dancing Balboa, Scott emphasizes comfort, musicality, and most importantly flow of the dance. Unlike Scott, Miyabi’s admiration for Balboa wasn’t love at first sight. It was not until she began learning Balboa in Korea that she became more interested in the dance. The more she learned about Balboa partnership and technique, the more she began to love the dance. Now Miyabi can not go a social dance without dancing Balboa! In her opinion, the most important aspect of Balboa is focusing on and mastering the fundamental skills of the dance. Scott and Miyabi have been dancing Balboa together the summer of 2016. Being from different parts of the world, Scott and Miyabi offer two unique complementing perspectives on the intricacies of the dance. In order to spread the love of Balboa throughout Taipei, they began teaching together at the beginning of 2017 as well as hosting a weekly Balboa social dance. Their hope is create more baby Balboa Monsters to share the love of the dance. Balboa是1940年代開始於美國加州的一種Swing舞蹈種類。比起展現華麗的舞蹈動作，Balboa往往更關注和舞伴間微小而巧妙的互動。因此，Balboa被廣泛地認為是最優美的Swing舞蹈，以及是“舞者的舞蹈”，而不是“觀看者的舞蹈”。Balboa近年來在世界各地再次掀起一股流行，歡迎大家和我們一起發現Balboa的美好。 ★★ Scott一開始在美國費城跳Lindy Hop和Blues，後來他遇到了Balboa。他的舞蹈靈感來自於在舞池上看到現在世界著名的Balboa老師-Adam Speen和Nelle Cherry。他認為Balboa是Blues和Lindy Hop之間最完美的結合。當跳Blaboa時，Scott強調舞蹈的舒適性、音樂性，還有最重要的是舞蹈帶給舞者的流暢律動。 和Scott不一樣，Miyabi對於Balboa並不是一見鍾情。直到她向韓國最棒的Balboa舞者Robin Kim和Mirae Kim學習Balboa後，才慢慢開始產生更多興趣。當她學習越多關於Balboa的舞伴關係與技巧，她越愛Balboa。現在Miyabi已經無法在social時不跳Balboa！對她來說，跳舞最重要的是打好扎實的舞蹈基礎。 著迷於Balboa的魅力，Scott和Miyabi在台灣2016年的夏天遇見了彼此。雖然Scott和Miyabi來自不同的世界，但他們對Balboa的愛是相同的。為了在台北推廣Balboa，他們於2017年初開始一起教學，並每週固定舉辦一次Balboa練習團。他們的希望是創造更多喜歡Balboa的小怪獸以及分享對Balboa的愛。♥
