With Simone Gvasalia

This workshop is suitable for anyone interested in ballroom, music, people who enjoy creating playlists for fun, and of course, anyone who is interested in learning how to DJ from Vancouver Ballroom’s 2025 DJ OTY, our very own: Simone Gvasalia (aka wurld2000k).

In this workshop, I’ll go over a brief history of my own journey through my love of music, joining ballroom and learning how to DJ. I’ll also go through the basics of running a ball through the POV of a DJ and teach you some beginner tips using a controller.

This is a beginner-friendly and OTA class :)

Class is in Pacific Standard Time
