Friday April 17th - ASPA INTRO! (with beginner Salsa Workshop)

This week we have combined our usual Chaos Friday with a beginner Cuban Salsa workshop AND an introductory meeting for our Aspa period – WITH FIKA!
Theme: Anything but a water bottle.
ASPA CSDA!
Do you like to dance? Do you like to watch people dance? Do you like the idea of dance? Or have you ever heard about the concept of dance? Perhaps you have seen the dancers of Chalmers standing right in the way in front of J.A. Pripps and thought, “I’d like to be in the way in front of J.A. Pripps too.” Or maybe you’re just looking for the fun and friendships that come from working together with people toward a common goal.
We welcome you to CSDA’s second-ever ASP*-meeting! Here you’ll learn a little bit about the Chalmers Social Dance Association (CSDA) – our core values, community, and ambitions for the future. If you’re interested, you’re welcome to join our aspningsperiod, where you’ll get the chance to get to know us better, join our activities, dance, hang out, and of course enjoy some fika together in preparation for our yearly assembly on May 17th. That’s when you’ll have the chance to join the board and become part of CSDA’s crew for the coming year.
Whether you’re curious about the association, interested in helping out, or just want to dance, have fika, and meet some nice people, you’re very welcome to stop by!
Agenda
18:30–19:30 – Beginner workshop in Cuban Salsa
19:30–20:30 – Chaos Friday dance & Fika
20:30–20:45ish – ASPAR introduction
20:45–late – Chaos Friday dance & Fika

*Aspning is the Swedish-ified way of saying “aspire to be” and is the Chalmers way of recruiting new members to committees, societies, and associations’ boards. An “asp” is the aspiring person themselves.

NOTE! You do not have to be a Chalmers student to become part of the board!

Location: Scaniasalen (2nd floor in Student Union Building).

If you need help finding the room, search for Scaniasalen in Chalmers Maps. 

Time: 18:30 – Late

If you are unsure if we are still dancing but want to join, send us a message on discord and someone there will try to give you a quick reply.

Sunday April 24th - Slow Bugg & Arm Styling Workshop

Join us for an inspiring afternoon dedica1ted to the beauty and flow of Slow Bugg. Slow Bugg is a slower variation of the Swedish partner dance Bugg, danced to slower music with softer movements and more focus on connection, feeling, and musicality rather than fast turns.
We’ll start by revisiting the fundamentals, then build on them with smooth variations, stylish turns, and expressive arm movements for both leaders and followers. This workshop is perfect for dancers who want to refine their technique, improve connection, and add elegance to their dancing.
Recommended level: At least one year of experience in Bugg or Slow Bugg. Others enter at your own risk!
We look forward to dancing with you!

Location: Scaniasalen (2nd floor in Student Union Building).

If you need help finding the room, search for Scaniasalen in Chalmers Maps. 

Time: 14:00 -17:00

May 17th - This Years General Assembly!

It is almost time for the general assembly. This is the time where we (amongst other things) get to vote in a new board.

We would love if you would come and help us set the theme for the new year of dancing. Maybe you want to be on the board? This is your chance!

There is probably going to be Fika!

Everyone is welcome!

NOTE! You do not have to be a Chalmers student to become part of the board!

Location: Scaniasalen (2nd floor in Student Union Building).

Time: Start at 13:00

EVERY FRIDAY: CHAOS PRACTICE TIME!

Every Friday we meet in Chalmers Union Building, right in front of J.A Pripps. We have an open playlist, which naturally and generally turns a bit chaotic, which is why we lovingly refer to our Fridays as “Chaos Fridays”. We frequently see dances such as Bugg, West Coast Swing, Salsa, Bachata, Lindy Hop, Argentine Tango, and Ballroom dances in our hangouts. Sometimes we have even seen Burlesque dancing and Bollywood dancing – you never know what might show up! Feel free to bring your own dance: we are many that are eager to see and try out new things!

Our Friday’s are an unofficial arrangement by volunteering members of CSDA and completely FREE and open for EVERYONE. WELCOME!

Location: In front of J.A Pripps, Chalmers Union Building
Enter Union Building from Teknologgården 2 (main entrence)

Time: 19:30 – until we get tired
(generally around 1 AM)

If you are unsure if we are still dancing but want to join, send us a message on discord and someone there will try to give you a quick reply.

Every Saturday: Bachata Practice!

Join our weekly free and open Bachata practice/socials! Starting at 17:30 in SB3-L111, and we’ll keep going for as long as we want! Whether you’re taking our course or not, feel free to drop by and bring a friend if you’d like!
If you can’t find the room or if it’s locked, let us know on Discord and we’ll let you in. See you all then!

Every Sunday: Rueda Workshop

New opportunity to max your Salsa dancing!
Welcome to dance Salsa Rueda on Sundays in Chalmers Union Building. We meet every week for the near future, we’ll have introductory course in Salsa, salsa rueda, and finish with some social dance! The event is open for everyone, regardless if you’re a student or not.
What is Rueda? Rueda is a form of salsa where everyone dances in a circle and changes partners constantly. It is a lot of fun and differs a bit from traditional partner dances.
Still Unsure If It’s for You? Then we invite you to come and try it out. And bring as many friends as possible – the more the better! Rueda is a lot of fun with many people. Plus, you don’t need to bring a dance partner. We will be switching constantly.
Who are we? We are just students and friends who enjoy dancing Rueda and are part of CSDA. We started last semester and have been constantly over 30 people each Sunday dancing Salsa Rueda together, many without prior experience.

Location: Chalmers Student Union Building “Kårhuset”

Time:
18:30-20:00 Salsa Rueda

20:00-21:30 Social Dance (salsa/bachata)

Price: FREE
