Modern Ballroom Dance

Whether you have danced ballroom before, are dancing ballroom now or are just starting out on your ballroom adventure, you will have fun learning them. Ballroom dance develops self confidence, good posture, elegance, balance, and social skills. We concentrate on just ONE dance until you are ready to move onto the next dance. Our experience has shown us that confidence, success and satisfaction are highest with this approach. Private and small group classes guarantee maximum personal attention. All classes are one hour long. There are NO registration fees, and you do NOT have to lock into a package plan -- just pay as you go!

Beginning Ballroom

You will learn at an easy pace the basics of ballroom: where to put your feet (and avoid your partner’s), rhythm, timing, the importance of the frame in guiding the dance, and finish by being able to dance a complete dance with confidence.

As you develop your dance skills you may want to progress through the next level and learn more complex and challenging dances and steps.

Intermediate Ballroom

For those who have had some ballroom experience. The class will concentrate on more complex variations, developing technique, style, timing, guiding, and footwork to the next level.

Weddings
Tired of the DJ running the show with gimmicks? Fed up with the Conga and the Limbo? Deafened by the sound volume? Want to do more than the "circular shuffle" that passes for dancing? Looking for beauty and elegance for your wedding dance? Here is a return to sanity and dignity....

Bride and Groom

For that special "first dance" we can provide assistance in dance and music selection, followed by instruction in your chosen dance. Choreography can be adjusted to suit all levels of ability.

Wedding Party

To enjoy and share in the fun of the dancing, we can provide private instruction in a variety of essential dance styles for the parents of the Bride and Groom and Wedding party.

Wedding Reception

It is becoming fashionable to provide themed dance instruction for wedding guests to enjoy something completely different. We will attend your wedding reception and provide a "dance class" for you and your guests. We can also provide a dance entertainment for you performing dances specific to each historical period in appropriate fashions.

Wedding Dance Music Selection Tips: you can aviod frustration and time wasted by researching and choosing your music, making sure that it can be danced to. A great deal of modern music is not designed for ballroom dance. It is usually too slow, too fast or does not have a regular beat or tempo. Make sure that the music or song you want to dance to is not longer than 3 minutes. Guests do not keep full attention on the dance if it is too long.

We all have songs with lyrics we think are appropriate and mean something to us, but often they fall into the too long, too short category and mean nothing to to others. Why not consider instrumental versions of the song without the lyrics. You will still know what it means to you.
