Each class will feature technique & choreography of one style of dance, including Salsa, Bachata, Cha Cha Cha, Mambo-Salsa, Samba, Bolero, Argentine Tango, Viennese Waltz, Foxtrot, Swing/Lindy, and Disco/Funk. A fun & informal experience, where style, elegance, and passion, will take over the dance floor, & fill your body with energy and confidence!
This multi-level class is suitable for adults and teens (16 & up) in moderate physical condition. All genders welcome. Intermediate & advanced students will be guided to embellish, nuance, and layer their movements.
Each session will cover new movements and combinations, so you can join any time & always learn something new!
