BALLROOM & SWING DANCING 

Our philosophy is simple, anyone can learn to dance.  If you want to learn, we can teach you! 

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT DANCE STYLES

Foxtrot, Waltz, and Tango are smooth dances that progress around the room. These dances are easy to learn, versatile, and very useable at social events. 

Salsa, Rumba, and Cha Cha are Latin dances that work well on smaller dance floors. These dances are fun, sexy, and easy to learn. Latin dances fit many contemporary songs as well as the great classics. 

​East Coast and West Coast Swing are great for dancing to Classic Rock, Contemporary Rock, and Blues. Swing is great for small dance floors, has lots of room for individual styling, and is the most popular social dance in the USA​.
GROUP DANCE CLASSES
Group classes generally run on a five week rotation and are progressive in nature. Classes begin with a review of prior material, reminders of technique and styling followed by the introduction of additional material based on comfort level. These classes are usually multi-level, with each level being coached accordingly.
Group Classes are held: 
Monday 6:30pm and 7:30pm     Richard
Thursday 6:30pm and 7:30pm   Richard

WHAT IS SOCIAL DANCING VS. COMPETITIVE DANCING

Social dancing is fun and easy to learn. We start with partnering skills, general dance technique and then add patterns. In addition, music and dance identification are discussed as well as styling and flair.

Competitive dancing is also fun and is appropriate for those who want to apply what they learn at a more physically demanding level.  If you are interested in competitive dance you should also expect to take private instruction and invest in appropriate ballroom dance shoes.  

Both styles of dance are fun and great exercise.
PRIVATE DANCE LESSONS
Private instruction is a great way to learn faster and at your own pace. Perfect for those with limited time or preparing for a specific event. 

Combining group classes with private instruction is the most effective way of learning partner dancing.

Lessons are typically done at our studio but can be done off site by special arrangement.
