Ballroom Bootcamp

Ballroom Bootcamp is a 4-week program intended to educate and cultivate on a once underground subdivision of gay society. Known as a safe haven LGBTQ community, mostly youth, ballroom was founded on the injustices of the Trans- African and Latin descendants of Harlem Renaissance times.

This course intends to historically inform those of interest to a very delicate and at times misunderstood scene with self-awareness, etiquettes, and basic knowledge skills. Physical and mental training follows to condition the mind, body and spirit to withstand the pressure of being judged by a panel of peers (or lack thereof).
