OPEN SESSION

About this event

Come to OPEN SESSION and practice your category with other members of the community!

‍
On Sunday, May 18th, we are back at Villa Concordia in Utrecht for a community practice & hang-out hosted by Mother Andrea Gabbana.

Between 14:00 - 17:00, you will have the space to practice in your categories - whether it be your 10s or preparing for battles, you’ll have the space to get ready for upcoming balls and kikis!

No matter if you're brand-new to ballroom or a seasoned member of the scene, a 007 or in a house, everyone is welcome to join!

During the upcoming weeks, we'll also have more times to practice at our studio on Tuesday evenings on May 20, June 3, and June 17.

Please note that this is not a function/ball - just an open practice.

Tickets are free, or you can donate to contribute to the venue costs.
