CalBal Classic 2019 Pure Balboa Finals
The Pure Balboa finals at CalBal Classic 2019. Pure Balboa keeps the dance in its traditional close embrace, with the feet carrying the rhythm while the upper body stays quiet and connected. It is a demanding discipline because there is little room to hide errors. Watch the posture, the lightness of the footwork at tempo and the way couples stay in step through changing music. A good reference for what the traditional form looks like.
