Slow Bal in De Doelen Studio

19 May 2023 | De Doelen Studio

Looking for a perfect start of your weekend? Look no further. Because on Friday the 19th of May De Doelen Studio in the city center of Rotterdam becomes the place for dancing Slow Swing. To be more precise: we dance Slow Bal!

Never heard of Slow Bal before and are you curious if this is something you might like? Than this is the perfect event for you. We start the night by introducing you to Slow Bal during a short dance workshop. It will be a crash course in which you’ll learn the basic steps and of course also a couple of fancy moves to shine on the dance floor. After the workshop the whole night will be Slow Swing themed. So we dance to slow jazz music from times gone by.  

For everyone who already dances Slow Bal, or any other kind of Slow dance, this is your time to sparkle and show off those moves you’ve learned in class. 

Special Edition: FLOWERS

To celebrate Spring, we have a special edition. Our theme of the night is FLOWERS! So dress up in your most flowery outfit.

Dance with or without your own dance partner

Would you like to bring friends and family to this fun night out? Please invite everbody along. Don’t know anybody who might like to join you? Then just join by yourself. During the workshop we rotate dance partners, because Slow Bal is a social dance. This means that you’ll get to know a lot of new people! So singles, solo’s or whatever you are, join us!

Maher’s Kitchen

Before the workshop and the dancing there is the opportunity to eat in the Doelen Studio. We have tasted it ourselves and it is an absolute must.

Syrian chef Maher Al Sabbagh is back with his tasty buffet in the Doelen Studio. Nothing is too crazy for him. Time and again he surprises us with ancient Palestinian dishes, Sicilian anti-pasti, Syrian soups, but also traditional Dutch desserts as hang-up.

The buffet opens at 18.00 hr
