Learning from Each other
“T&S attracts people of all skill levels from beginners to those who have been twisting for decades. What makes it so special is that even the most seasoned twister can learn from the beginners. It’s the sharing of fresh ideas that makes our community strong. Plus, it’s a great excuse to get super dressed up!”

I felt welcome
“Right off the bat, I felt welcome and instantly part of this amazing family…I had found my world. My place on the planet is there. With all of them.
And it doesn’t matter if you are beginner. I saw balloon legends sitting on the floor showing stuff to newbies.
Twist and Shout is my go-to convention…it will change your life!”
