Learn to Dance!
Learning to dance is a fun and easy way to help yourself be a healthier person! It’s good exercise for your body and your brain. We have a series designed especially for the beginner dancer. Ballroom Basics I, II, and III are a series of three, 6-week group lessons to give you a crash course in social dancing. The dances include Swing, Foxtrot, Rumba, and Waltz. This is the perfect course for couples who are getting ready for a wedding. Singles are encouraged, as we always rotate partners.
For the Intermediate dancer we have a series of American Smooth and Rhythm classes. We will be working from the National Dance Council of America’s (NDCA) Bronze syllabus. Each dancer will receive a binder and syllabus to keep track of their progress. The Smooth classes will include Foxtrot, Waltz, and Tango. The Rhythm classes will include Cha-cha, Rumba, and Triple-Time Swing.
