We love dancing to slow jazz music and we love to share our passion with others even more. Looking for Slow Bal teachers or private lessons? You are in the right place!
Slow Bal is a beautiful Swing dance. Deirdre, together with partner teachers (Joost, Giovanni, Mark), travel around to share their love of this elegant slow dance with as many people as possible. Curious where you can find us? Check out the events page for an overview.
Are you an organizer of a Swing dance event and would you like to include Slow Swing or Slow Bal in your program? Perfect! We think it’s always a good idea to include Slow Swing. Not only because it’s beautiful to dance, but also because it requires quite a lot of skill and muscle control.

Are you looking for weekly dance lessons? Cool!
At the moment we are not offering any weekly courses anymore. But, luckily for you, Slow Bal is now being taught by our partner dance school Swing in Rhythm. Courses usually start in January, April and September. It could be that there is no absolute beginner course starting. In that case, we gladly help you with private lessons to get you up to speed with the curriculum.
Below you will find more info about the options for private lessons.
Private lessons are perfect to develop your own skills in a pace that suits you best. If you feel reluctant to take your first dance steps in a group, a private lesson beforehand can help to gain more confidence. Individual feedback can also help you grow if you are a more experienced dancer; adding more layers to your knowledge.
A one hour private lesson with Deirdre costs 55 euro for one person and 65 euro for two people.
Per hour there is an additional fee of 10 euro for studio rent. It’s also possible to do the private lesson(s) at your house. Depending on location and travel time, additional costs will be 10 euro (minimal).
If you want a private lesson with more than two people, please contact us about the possibilities. We are experienced in teaching different kinds of workshops for small and big groups, in private settings or at events!
The closed connection and slow pace of the dance makes Slow Bal perfect for the first dance at your wedding. With some romance or some humour (or both), it will be a memorable dance for sure. We can create a choreography for you, and help you practice for your big day.
We believe everyone can learn to dance. However, it will take some time, depending on your experience and skills. We advise you to start at least three months before your wedding day.
Lessons for a wedding choreo cost 85 euro per hour. This is including the tailor made choreography. Do you not want a choreography, but just learn some moves on the song of your choice? In this case, the price is 65 euro per hour. Prices are excluding rent of the studio (10 euro per hour). It’s also possible to do lessons at your home, depending on the location and travel time, the price is 10 euro (minimal).
