Slow Motion Fusion

A NEW THIRD SATURDAY SERIES
Slow Motion is the formal launch of a long-term 3rd Saturday fusion dance series! Join us on October 17th and December 19th! We are skipping November to support a schedule conflict with Barefoot!

OPEN PRE-PARTY PRACTICA TIME 7PM-8PM
The first hour of the event is set aside as an open practice to skill-share and dial in what you’re already learning from the 100+ other fusion dance lessons offered throughout the year by Barefoot, Drip, etc!

DJ LINEUP (SET TIMES TBA!)

OCTOBER 17TH:
- 8PM CHAD WILSON
- 9PM FINLEY MOOREFIELD
- 10PM MATTHEW TSUNAMI

DECEMBER 19TH: (Set Times TBA)
- JOEL SMITH
- MATTHEW TSUNAMI
- DANIEL OLIVER

SLOW MOTION FUSION DANCE 8PM-11PM
The music will be slow, but not exclusively “micro”, with the first hour being the most flexible and the final hour being the most micro. The practice hour will allow dance floor chatter, then we will transition to whispers-only, and finally a strictly silent dance floor for the final stretch of the musical journey.

Safety Note:
Safety is always a welcomed exception to volume and silence policies on the dance floor. You are always welcome to use your voice to communicate comfort, advocate consent, and defend safety with any tone or volume level you want to protect you or others.

About Slow Motion Fusion:
Slow Motion was started by Daniel Oliver (Melt) with DJs Jordan River (Drip) and Bri McArthur (PB&J). The mission continues to unite the community to dance.

Vibe Notes:
This event is BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ and friendly. This is not a tantra-centered or sensuality-centered event. Slow Motion is a partner dance event with fusion community expectations and etiquette similar to Drip, Barefoot, and Nectar. If you aren’t sure what that means, please show up early for the Open Practice and ask for a host to explain.
