Broomfield Social

Is it on your bucket list to take a fun, social dance lesson with music you are familiar with?

Kevin Kim is returning to Colorado for a limited seasonal engagement at Boulder Ballet (Dairy Arts) to share a method of blues dance designed specifically for mid-lifers—prioritizing heart, social connection, and ease of learning. Hundreds of dancers have been tranformed with this method of dance lessons.

About Your Instructor Kevin is an experienced instructor and community organizer who has spent the last decade developing blues dance communities across Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico. Once "socially challenged" himself, Kevin’s mission is to help others on a similar path live more courageously through the joy of lead-follow partnership dancing.

The Experience

• Music & Tempo: We focus on slow to moderate tempo Blues and crossover music that allows for a "trance-like" rhythm and groove.
• Fast-Track Learning: This 90-minute intensive is designed to bypass the need for months of lessons and get you dancing immediately.
• Low Impact: Blues is a natural, grounded dance that is easy on the body and joints.
• What is Blues Dance?: A family of dances focused on rhythm, heart, and a unique, communicative lead-follow connection.

The Details

• When: Saturday, July 18th @ 8:30 AM – 10:00 AM.
• Where: Boulder Ballet @ Dairy Arts Center
• Cost: $15 (Pay at the door).
• STRICT Footwear Requirement: To protect the professional dance floors, you must wear dance shoes or socks. No sneakers, no marking footwear and no bare feet are permitted in the studio.
• Hydration: Please bring a water bottle for hydration.
• No Partner Needed: No experience required.

The Progression: This is the foundation. To fully master the art of the dance take advantage of our $25 Full-Morning Bundle, please also RSVP for the Masterclass immediately following (10:15 AM).
To ensure a premium experience with maximum time on the floor, we maintain a strictly balanced lead-to-follow ratio. Registrations are 'ratio-locked,' meaning you may be placed on a waitlist until a partner of the opposite role signs up to restore the balance and keep the dance moving. You can jump into the lesson with a +1 RSVP.

Is your dancing starting to feel repetitive or "boring"?
When the music slows down, do you find yourself running out of ideas?

This Masterclass is designed specifically for the seasoned dancer ready to move past patterns and into the true "Groove." Kevin Kim returns to Boulder to guide you through the deeper, more nuanced layers of Blues that set a dancer apart on a crowded floor. We are moving beyond the mechanics and into the Intimate Architecture of the dance.

### What Makes This Class Different?
Unlike general social lessons, we focus on the relationship between your body and the band:

• The "Backline Lock": Stop chasing the melody. Learn to answer the rhythm section by translating the backline player’s pulse into a physical "Pop" and a disciplined "Hold."
• Deep Connection: Moving beyond simple lead-follow into a synchronized, high-level partnership.
• Musical Adaptation: Learning to hear the "space between the notes" in both traditional Blues and modern Fusion sets.
• The Groove Mood: Cultivating the specific aesthetic that makes Blues a unique, "trance-like" experience.

### The 2026 Readiness Guarantee
Upon completion of both the 8:30 AM Intensive and this Masterclass, you will be prepared to blues dance with total confidence through the remainder of your life. Whether at high-end live music venues, Meetups, weddings, or the upcoming Mile High Blues Farewell Dance (July 24th), you will possess the specialized skills to adapt, express, and lead with distinction.

### STRICT RATIO-LOCKED BALANCE

To ensure a premium experience with maximum floor time, we maintain a strictly balanced lead-to-follow ratio. Registrations are "Ratio-Locked." You may be placed on a waitlist until a partner of the opposite role signs up to restore the balance. To bypass the waitlist, we encourage you to sign up with a partner.
