Alternative Partner Dance with Salty Fusion

Salty Fusion is an open dance format that takes place every first and third Tuesday of the month. The focus is on alternative partner dancing, where all participants learn both to lead and to follow—regardless of gender, dance level, or identity. Traditional role models are deliberately broken down to create an inclusive space for communal dancing.

The concept combines elements from various dance styles such as tango, blues, and contact improvisation. This includes fluid movements from blues, precise steps from tango, and playful improvisation. Dancing is set to a wide range of music, spanning from classical to modern sounds. In the summer, the event takes place in Donnenberg Park when the weather is good, and indoors at the HOSI Salzburg premises in case of rain.

The evening begins with a 1.5-hour workshop, followed by free dancing. Participation is on a donation basis (5–15 euros are recommended), though free attendance is also welcome. Instruction is provided flexibly in both German and English. Salty Fusion is aimed at anyone who wants to dance and experiment together without rigid rules.
