JEM (formerly Fusion Experience) is the longest-running queer Afro-Latin dance social in NYC. Our goal is to provide a workshop/dance social and learning community that goes beyond movement while hiring artists that value intersectionality, safety, and diversity within art and movement.

-Never assume a dancer is a lead or follow based on gender, clothing or looks; ask.

-Consent is key on and off the dance floor: “Would you like to dance?”

-Please drink responsibly. Anyone who displays drunk or disorderly behavior will be escorted out of the event.

-Ask people their pronouns and names, it helps connect.

-No Homophobia, Sexism, Racism, Ageism, Ableism, or other discrimination will be tolerated here. You will be asked to leave!

-Never make people feel uncomfortable on or off the dance floor, you will be banned from all our events.

-Show the love you would want to receive to the performers, it takes courage.

-Enjoy the night away, meet someone new and dance with them! Don’t overthink and have fun!
