Blues has its roots in Afro-America from about 100 years ago. The expression of blues dance is strongly linked to the music we dance to. It expresses many emotions, ranging from supreme happiness to struggle and the desire for a better life. You can best describe the blues as relaxed and pure, nothing flashy or strict but above all a search for your own groove, expression and connection with the other. --> https://zoom.us/j/99095767257 __ Break Out party __ After the dance class we are warmed up to dance and party! Welcome everyone to Break Out, an online party with live music, performance, interactive entertainment, connection and a lot of fun. Leni & Sep are thrilled to host the party. Break Out - Feat. Ups and Downs: https://www.facebook.com/events/135297664873031 __ Tickets? __ You don't need to buy a ticket for the dance classes, but donations for the artist are more than welcome! We decided to create a different system of monetising to keep it accessible and sociable as possible for all. Our recommended donation is €7. More is great, less is fine too.
