Trying to learn Balboa while dancing to a complicated song can make things even more difficult. And it’s more than just the tempo of a song. Easy rhythms, simple song structure, and repetition can all make dancing that much simpler. It doesn’t mean that the music is completely void of interest, rather the song assists you in your learning process, rather than confuse you.  Below are 5 of my favorite beginner balboa tunes.

Joshua Fit The Battle of Jericho – Sidney Bechet

Central Avenue Shuffle – Ozzie Nelson and His Orchestra

At The Clambake Carnival – Cab Calloway

A Viper’s Moan – Mora’s Modern Rhythmists

Community Swing – Glenn Miller
