The musicians brought the music. You brought the magic. ✨

We took so many photos at our August Live Band Night that we had to share a few more! This time, the spotlight is on the people who filled the dance floor and made the night so much fun.

So many great dances, big smiles, close calls, happy spins, and moments of pure musical joy. ❤️

One of our favorite things about Bal Haus is seeing how everyone brings their own personality and style to the dance floor. You each bring something special to our community, and you mean so much to us.

Thank you for coming out, dancing with us, and making Bal Haus what it is. We’re so lucky to have all of you. 💛

Here are some photos that captured a little bit of what the night felt like. Looking back at our August Live Band Night and thinking… yep, that was a REALLY good one! ❤️

The Nathan Tokunaga Quartet brought an incredible night of live swing to Bal Haus, with Nathan Tokunaga, Adam Kubota, Nirav Sanghani, and Nathan Joseph keeping the dance floor moving all night. There was so much energy in the room, and the music was simply a joy to dance to.

A big thank-you to these four fantastic musicians for sharing their talent with us, and to Paul Riding for keeping the music going between sets.

And to everyone who came out to dance, cheer, listen, and fill the room with good energy — thank you. A live band is only half of the equation. It’s the dancers and the people in the room that turn it into a Bal Haus night. ✨

We’re already looking forward to the next one!

July Bal Haus was one big celebration! 🎉

We had a geeky and successful workshop during the day, and were thrilled to have so many out-of-town dancers joining us in the evening dance pary. The long holiday weekend was magical. 🪄🎩

Here are some of our favorite moments from the evening dance party. Looking through these photos and seeing so many smiling faces fills us with so much joy. Thank you to everyone who joined us—whether you danced all night, caught up with old friends, met someone new, volunteered, or simply helped create the warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes Bal Haus so special.

We can't wait to see you back on the dance floor in a couple of weeks. And if you had a great time, spread the love and invite a friend to come along. 🥰

The Mankes never disappoint! 🥰Their workshop completely satisfied our thirst for diving into all the geeky details of the essence of Pure Bal. Every tiny adjustment we learned had a huge impact on how our bodies moved and how dancing Pure Bal felt. It's amazing how such subtle changes can make such a big difference. We only wish the workshop had been longer than two days! Thank you, Susan and Corey, for sharing your knowledge, passion, and generosity with our community. We can't wait to invite you back to SF! 🌉
