WHAT IS BAREFOOT FUSION?

Barefoot is a POC & LGBTQIA safe(r) event. This means bigotry of any kind is not tolerated. If you experience or see anything questionable, please let someone on the PB&J team know. Thanks for helping keep our dance a safe and welcoming space for all!

Barefoot is a structured, weekly fusion dance event that remains a creative dance community at its heart. All dance levels are welcome and no prior dance experience is required.

At Barefoot every Friday you'll see everything from Traditional Blues dancing to "Fusion dancing", which is the combination of two or more dance styles danced to non-traditional music. For example, Blues can be mixed with Tango and danced to world-fusion electronica. You may also see people dancing "Micro Blues," which is done in close embrace with slight body movements and isolations. Even though Barefoot is a structured, weekly event, it still remains a creative dance community at its heart. All dance levels are welcome and no prior dance experience is required.

FOR ALL MASKED DANCES:

• Regardless of state, city, or other regulations, you will be required to wear a mask (N95 or KN95) while in the venue (provided)


FOR ALL DANCES: 

• Temperature checks will be done at the door


• Please do not attend if you are exhibiting symptoms. If you are exhibiting ANY of the following, please stay home: runny nose, headache, fatigue, sneezing, sore throat, etc.
