What is Cissy Ball?
Cis-sy is a playful fusion between the words 'sissy' and a cis person. It symbolizes that everyone is welcome: the Sissys, their friends, and everyone else!Cissy Ball is a dance class for people who love to perform and go crazy with music, rather than learning a new dance technique and memorizing different steps and counts. It is a dance style with origins in dance theater tradition (Pina Bausch, Alain Platel, etc.), where you move from your personal inner joy to dance. Dance steps and choreography are created together through games, assignments, and simple instructions. It's a party for life and a perfect way to let loose. Lesson after lesson, you improve your performance skills, dance technique, and learn to use your body from the inside.
The dance lessons are a 1.5h workshop, and each lesson ends in a show moment.
