Adult, Teen and Children's
Group Classes |
We teach a variety of group classes 6 days per week. Most are drop-in
classes, while some progress throughout the month. Progressive classes
build on material learned in previous weeks throughout the month. Group
classes are open to walk-ins and students who schedule in advance. Group
classes solidify step patterns, help develop balance, and improve the
ability to lead and follow. Group classes are taught at the average
learning rate of the group and are a great place to meet potential
practice or competition dance partners. We post all group lesson dates
and times on our dance calendar, or you can call 203-748-2884 with
scheduling questions. Each lesson is one hour in length. |
|
Private Lessons |
Private lessons are the most effective method to learning quality lead
and follow techniques for all dances. These progress at the individual's
rate of learning and give them dedicated time with instructors to
understand how to move throughout dance. Private lesson students may
choose to seek competition opportunities to showcase their hard work and
dedication. All skill levels from the novice to advanced student can
benefit from one-on-one instruction. It's a fabulous way to improve your
dancing! Individuals or couples may take private lessons. Lessons may be
scheduled for either a 1/2 hour or 1 hour in length. Private lessons may
be scheduled in advance by calling us at 203-748-2884. |
