Central Coast Balboa
with Bridget & Robbie Hughes
Beach Break Swing
Balboa is a partnered swing dance that originated in the 1930s in Southern California. Join us to learn the basics and start your journey social dancing! In this ongoing weekly progressive lesson we will teach you the basics of balboa and get you out on the dance floor. No experience or partner necessary.
We highly recommend registering for 3 lessons at a time using the Grover Beach Parks & Rec website. Our lessons build on each other and are best enjoyed in sets of three. We help beginners get started with the basics and build up & fine tune the skills of our intermediate dancers. Stick around afterwards to practice and enjoy 2 hours of social dancing on the beautiful floor of the Grover Beach Community Center!

About Us
Robbie and Bridget met and started dancing together at weekly dance lessons in 2011. They both started in lindy hop but when balboa was introduced it quickly became their favorite dance. They have traveled to learn from some of the best balboa dancers, and now share their love of the dance with their community.
If they are not on the dance floor, they are spending time with their two children, family, and friends.
