     BALBOA PAVILION HISTORY

EDUCATION - Balboa University is an instructional format to develop well-rounded dancers:
     A weekend with a variety of open-minded instructors to offer different techniques and skills.
     IN CLASS INSTRUCTORS are utilized for students to have personal feedback in class.
     INSTRUCTOR WORKSHOPS are provided to enhance the skills of current & future teachers of Balboa.

COMPETITION - only one contest showcased to inspire all levels of dancers - the International Balboa Championship:
     Skills in Pure Balboa, Bal-Swing, and Showmanship will be required to win The Rendezvous Cup.
     Competition will only take 30min each evening to allow for more classes/education and optimal social dancing
     FUN Amateur tap out contest added for Saturday night during after-hours.
         
PROFESSIONAL - offer the highest quality experience for everyone attending:
     All weekend events will run as scheduled allowing you time to eat, shower, and relax
     The best venues, bands, and down to earth teachers are booked to create a unique experience
     FOUR LIVE BANDS are booked to experience a real dance experience
     The Rendezvous is not over-sold to allow plenty of space at the dances and especially the workshops.

A lot of work has gone into creating this special event with these goals in mind for all of you.
After creating the highly successful All Balboa Weekend in Cleveland, OH, I knew I could bring dancers together where it all began...
I look forward to seeing many of you at this amazing gathering.

Sincerely,

Joel Plys
