Balboa In Sydney
Danced in a closed position, Pure Balboa evolved due to conservative dance halls where space was a major issue. Halls often had strict rules which prohibited the Charleston and other exuberant dances... so a dance which required very little space was rapidly welcomed within the crowded halls. Naturally the dance evolved and started to introduce fancier variations such as spins, turns, dips, tricks, and even air steps! Today the two dances are acknowledged but are often danced as one, switching between the close style of Pure Balboa and the throw-outs, spins and other moves now known as Bal Swing.
