Fusion Saturday
Fusion partner dance event by Justin Burkey
Fusion is back! What is fusion you ask?
The sacred texts (wikipedia) tell us this:
Some say Fusion is a dance form all its own while others might say it is a type of contemporary improvised partner dance that combines different dance styles. Most agree it does not require conforming to any particular defined dance styles, but typically uses a lead-follow-or switch approach that emphasises musicality. Fusion dancing may involve creating a new dance style, recreating an already established dance style, combining existing styles of movement, or any combination of the above (as well as many other possibilities we probably haven’t thought of yet).
