Our dance classes Gold Coast run in 4-week cycles, best to start week 1 or 2. 

BALBOA THURSDAYS

Learn. Build. Explore.

Join us every Thursday for a dedicated night of Balboa at Swingtime Gold Coast.

Whether you’re completely new to Balboa, looking to expand your vocabulary, or you’re an experienced Balboa dancer wanting to explore your dancing further, our three-class format gives you somewhere to learn, develop and be challenged.

BALBOA FOUNDATIONS

7:00–7:45pm | $15 casual

4 week Foundations $50

New to Balboa? Start here.

Foundations is designed for complete beginners, with no previous Balboa or dance experience required and no partner needed.

Classes run in 4-week blocks, focusing on the essential rhythms, connection and movement that make Balboa such a unique and enjoyable social dance.

Each Foundations block is designed as a beginner-friendly entry point, so you can start at the beginning of any new 4-week block.

4-week course: $50 when booked in advance
or $15 casual per class.

BALBOA SKILLS

7:45–8:15pm | $18 (includes Foundations class)

This is where you start expanding your Balboa vocabulary.

Each week we focus on one useful skill or classic Balboa variation that you can take straight onto the social dance floor.

Rather than rushing through lots of material, we give you time to understand it, practise it and make it comfortable in your own dancing.

BALBOA LAB

8:15–9:00pm | $20 (includes Foundations + Skills)

For experienced Balboa dancers who want to explore their dancing further.

Balboa Lab goes beyond simply learning more complicated moves. We explore rhythm, connection, musicality, footwork, improvisation, Pure Bal, Bal-Swing, individual expression and the subtle communication that makes Balboa feel so good.

Expect interesting ideas, challenges and plenty of opportunity for both leaders and followers to contribute their own voice to the dance.

Your $20 Lab entry includes all three classes, giving you a full two hours of Balboa.

OUR APPROACH

At Swingtime, we believe partner dancing is a conversation between two dancers.

Our classes place equal importance on leading and following, strong fundamentals, rhythm, musicality and individual expression.

The goal isn’t simply to learn more moves — it’s to become a better, more confident and enjoyable social dancer.

NEW TO BALBOA?

You don’t need a partner and you don’t need any previous dance experience.

Just start with Balboa Foundations.
