Learn all the good form and partnering skills
which will "spring-board" you to dance of all kinds
DanceWell offers a
Social Dance Program where our
goal is to present ballroom and partner dancing in a friendly,
holistic and upbeat atmosphere.
DanceWell also offers a
Professional Training Program,
a nationally-based program for those who like
a very structured learning environment or who may wish to teach
dance themselves. Anyone can have a
professional knowledge of dancing if they choose.
Some suggestions if you're new to dancing:
INTRO TO DANCE CLASSES are slower-paced for those who
have never danced before and need to learn about movement and
partnering. If you cannot take the Intro
classes, then taking a private lesson is a another great way to start
or have evaluation for class placement.
BEGINNER CLASSES are faster-paced, for those who would like
to learn more steps, more
quickly. Best if you've either had some sort of prior form of
dance discipline or if you learn movement quickly.
Our calendar is scheduled so
that we offer new INTRO
classes and new BEGINNER MONTH ONE classes every
month. After taking a BEGINNER MONTH ONE class, you may
choose to learn a new dance in another MONTH ONE class. There's lots of
different music out there and one dance does not suit all.
OR You may choose to continue
to BEGINNER MONTH TWO, and then INTERMEDIATE and
ADVANCED classes. Up to
four months of the same dance at the same time and day each week.
Stop
when you feel you know enough steps to have fun for a while.
You can take the class over again later for review and to add new
steps.
We also
encourage you to continue in
INTRO TO DANCE and our weekly Socials each month for review.
REMEMBER: You are
welcome to register for most classes the day of your class, just come in 15 minutes
early for registration. Some classes fill quickly and you may
wish to prepay earlier by phone: (503)241-0460 x0. Our limit is
40 students per class.
ALSO: The easiest
dances to learn at first are found in the Introduction to Dance
classes. The degree of difficulty varies for all other
dances. Feel free to ask advice about which classes would best
suit you.
We
hope you'll meet some new
friends and find dancing fun and rewarding
in many ways.
All the best to you in your
endeavor.
