Our
programs

Our programs are here to help you grow, connect, and have fun in ballroom.

We organise classes, workshops, balls, trans-centered events, personal development programs; all made for and with queer and trans people of color.

These spaces are for you to learn, create, or just be in community.

Participant Experiences

“Ballroom gave me the space to fully embrace who I am through the expression of my gender, my fashion, and my self-worth in general. I thank ballroom for the person I am today and for the community it has given me.”

Anonymous

“Utrecht Ballroom Scene is a place where I feel safe and can express myself as a trans woman. It gave me a close-knit community when I first arrived in the Netherlands alone. Ballroom makes me a better person.”

Anonymous

“Being surrounded by like-minded people, especially other queer people of color, helped me understand and develop my identity and self-expression in a safer way. Ballroom has given me more confidence in myself and my abilities. Through the community activities and classes, it has significantly improved both my mental and physical health. Ballroom gave me the will to live and to want more for myself.”

faq

What should I wear?

You can wear anything you’d like. We advise you to wear light, comfortable clothes that you feel good to move in. Because of the studio floor, heels are not allowed.

Can anyone join the class? How beginners friendly is it?

Anyone is welcome to join the class. You do not need to have any dance experience or background. At the classes, we welcome people from all walks of life, but please be aware that this is a safer space for queer and trans people, particularly people of color.

Can I try a class once, or do I need to buy a subscription?

You can join any week. Every class is different, so you can drop in any time.
