Heels: Walk and Dance in Your Own Shoes

Presented by SF Salon Music

Put on your dancing shoes and learn about what it takes to dance in several different styles, all while enjoying food, wine, and community.

They say that to know a person’s journey, you need to walk a mile in their shoes. At this salon, we’ll learn about the stories of several dancers through the history of their shoes - from bare feet to pointe slippers to tango heels!

The program will start with a talk about the symbolism and feminism of shoes, why women wear heels, and how wearing heels changes and reflects the body - the look from outside the shoes and the feel from inside the shoes. Then, join us for riveting dance performances from a group of trained dancers representing many different styles. You'll walk away inspired, and learn a bit more to tell your story with your own shoes.

As always with SF Salon Music, expect the unexpected! You'll leave with new knowledge, new memories, and perhaps even a new connection. Join us on April 30 at the Verdi Club in San Francisco for this once-in-a-lifetime performance.
