Welcome, Slow Dance Enthusiasts!

After an excellent experience last year, we are delighted to bring back this unique event to dancers in the Lindy Hop, Balboa, and Blues Dance communities, and reconnect with our love of slow jazz music! 

Registration Opens Thursday, February 13

Our tiered registration will open 6pm ET on Thursday February 13, 2025, though you can get a sneak peak at the tiers at https://slowdancesoiree.com/registration-pricing. Spread the word and we'll see you at the event in July!

Classes

We have assembled an excellent staff of incredible instructors to guide and inspire you through the weekend. Look out for instructor announcements soon! 
We'll have three class tracks and multiple simultaneous classes so you can get the most out of your experience wherever you are in your slow dance journey. Along with varied slow dancing classes, we are also very excited to bring back Slow Balboa this year!

Competitions

We'll also feature fun and exciting competitions during the weekend, including a Short Showcase (1:30 max length, 2-6 dancers) and a Slow Dance Mix & Match. Keep an eye out for more information soon!

Late Night Parties

Last year we had some killer late night parties, including dancing at The Lindy Compound and a hot tub/pool party on Friday night. Weather permitting, we'll have more after hours revelry in this year's event!
