We Teach People how to dance quickly and correctly.

In couple's dancing there's a Leader and a Follower. In addition to teaching 'Steps', we teach people how to dance together and enjoy dancing with their partner. Have fun dancing at a downtown pub. Learn a special dance for your wedding, or dance at someone else's wedding. Dance the night away on your next Cruise. Arrange a dance event for your organization or a group class for your employees to enhance Teamwork and Morale.

Benefits Beyond Simple Exercise. Dancing is a sport that gives you many benefits: it's a great exercise for mind, body and spirit, it a special way to enjoy being together with another person, and it's a fantastic opportunity to meet like minded people at Social Dance Events. These are all important elements of a healthy, well-balanced, well-lived life. There's no better way to achieve all these, and more than through dance.

I invite you to contact us and discuss creating a personalized dance program for you.

    Want to give a huge thanks to Sue and Richard for giving us our dance lessons for our wedding day. They were so easy to learn from and had amazing tips to help make you look like a professional. Always good spirits and they’d keep you motivated during your entire lesson. We got so many compliments on our dancing thanks to them. I’d highly recommend them if your wanting to just learn to dance for fun or for any occasion or even to become a pro like them. They truly show they’re deep passion for dancing when teaching you.
