Dancing for Social Occasions

Mondays 6:30-7:30 p.m. (Beginner level) 

This basic ballroom class focusing on the most popular slow and fast dances. A few basics in these dances enables a person to pretty much dance to all music, so it is an excellent class for those who are involved in weddings. In no time at all, you'll be able to get a great start and have a reasonable degree of comfort dancing the basics.

The content of each class series is decided by the third week of the present class by those registered for the class. While we often focus on Foxtrot, Waltz and Swing, we also explore dances such as Tango, Hustle, Merengue, Country Two Step, Polka or other dances. We usually focus on two dances in any given month. Some people continue for several months perfecting the basics or getting a sampling of several dances. This is a very beginner friendly class, so newcomers are always welcome to join.  Couples stay together.  Singles switch or dance with me.  REGISTER NOW    (top)

Ballroom, Latin, Swing

Mondays 7:30-8:30 p.m. (Beginner and more advanced levels) 

There are several opportunities to share a time spot with a few other couples giving you more personalized attention but at less of a cost than a private lesson. These are shared private lessons. Each shared lesson spot has a specific focus. These are ongoing classes, so new students can enroll just about any time. Because I am more involved with each student, it is best to have a partner for these classes

Ballroom, Latin, Swing:  We cover all the dances eventually and keep coming back to them. This is a good place to be if you want to just keep working on your dancing. We try to dance a lot. Each couple is working on their own material at their own level related to the theme for the month which the group chooses. Couples stay together and do not switch in this class. REGISTER NOW    (top)
