What are the On-site Suggestions & Rules?

•It is better to show up 10 minutes early when you take your first lesson. If you like to get there much earlier, there are lovely sofas in the hallway, so you ca​n meet and chat with friends there to wait until the dance room is ready.

• No dre​ss code for lessons or parties! Wear what is comfortable for you to move and dance. During parties and festivals, we encourage ladies to wear comfortable dresses or beautiful skirts, but they are unnecessary.

•Bring clean, smooth-sole shoes with you and change into. Dance shoes with smooth bottoms are the best! High heels (or pointed heels/thick heels) shoes aren’t recommended!

•Free, convenient parking in the parking lot, but it is better to park close to the left side main door (The police station is at the right end of the building)!

•No alcoholic beverages and drugs are allowed in the premises and building. Fountain water is available in the hallway, or purchase the bottle water from the vending machine inside the building.

•We do post pictures and videos of classes or parties on social media outlets. By joining activities at the Ballroom and Latin Dance Club, you give us permission to use your images for marketing and promoting dance classes and events.

• You are encouraged to take photos and videos during party time on Saturdays 8:00 - 10:00 pm. Please DO NOT take videos during lessons to avoid making other people feel awkward. You can post your photos and videos anywhere you like, but the Studio retains the right to ask you to remove the posts if anything is wrong or/and other students/customers have concerns/complaints about the related posts.

What can I learn here?

We teach Partner dances which include at least 18 popular dances from the Basic level - Social level - Intermediate Level-Advanced level: Salsa, Bachata, Merengue, Cumbia, Rumba, Cha-Cha, Night club 2-step, Country 2-step, Hustle, East Coast Swing, West Coast Swing, Tango, Foxtrot, Waltz, Viennese Waltz, Bolero, Samba, Polka, etc. We still accept REQUESTS. If you really want to know some special dances, contact us, then we can consider them.

How will I know that I am learning at a good pace?

If you are a dance beginner, just join the first lesson on Saturday from 6:30-7:20 pm for basic steps. If you can follow the instruction and learn 2-3 steps well, you are on an average level.  If you cannot make 3 steps, you may consider taking some private lessons to improve your abilities and then join group lessons to review and practice. If you are a dance beginner and can easily practice with others on all taught steps, you are learning at a good and fast pace. So, you can continue join the second lesson from 7:20 - 8:00 pm. Dance practice parties 8-10 pm are good for everyone to review and learn more from others.
