Private Lesson: A private lesson is you and your instructor working together one on one. A private lesson is designed to be the movement part of the dancing and learning. Your teacher will try and keep you dancing while they fine-tune your movement so that you look and feel better. We teach private lessons in the main ballroom. Here you will find many students taking lessons at the same time. It is an exciting way to learn and we have found that students taking lessons at the same time in this type of environment more correctly represents the atmosphere that you will be dancing in. The teachers have a great way of all working together that makes it exciting and fun!

Group Lesson: A group lesson is where you go to learn all of the mechanics of your dancing. We try and keep the group lessons fewer than ten people and the material is preset based on the students in the group class. You will be amazed at how the group teacher will know just what you need - your teacher has told them. We offer many levels of classes and also specialty classes, your teacher will help you find the right fit for you. We understand that the private lessons will feel more exciting and valuable, but you will get a lot more out of your privates and dancing if you utilize the groups for your mechanical learning.

Friday Dance Party: The Friday Dance Party is held each Friday night from 9:00-10:30 pm. This is your practical application, embarrassment free! It's your time to dance everything that you have learned in an environment where everyone is learning. These practices are very important because they teach you how to identify what dance goes to what kind of music as well as how to move around the crowded dance floor. We have students attending from lesson number one to lesson number one thousand and thirty one. It is a great way to learn by watching and actually getting out there. All the instructors are present and they rotate around and offer one-minute private lessons to everyone. They will help you to get the most out of your dancing!

Guest Party: Every Thursday night the studio hosts a Guest Party that begins at 8:45 and goes to about 10:15 pm. Thursday nights are totally free and the only admission we ask is that you bring a guest with you. You will enjoy champagne and general dancing, an incredible floorshow put on by the staff, a great introductory lesson for your friends, and the party ends with an offer for your friends to come back for some introductory lessons. Anytime a friend of yours continues with us, you have a chance to earn free lessons for yourself. We are constantly thinking of ways to promote the studio and we have found that this one of the best ways to do it. By having a guest party, we can keep the studio growing which is great for you and us too. We do a short guest announcement each lesson and send out weekly guest flyers. Should you have any comments or suggestions, please do not hesitate to speak with the manager.

Key Teacher: When you first arrive at the studio, you will be assigned a key teacher who will coordinate your dancing goals and schedule, and teach most of your private lessons. Our teachers represent many different backgrounds and personalities, and we are aware that we might not get your perfect match on the first try. It is very common for students to work with more than one teacher, or change teachers. Please do not be shy about asking to work with a different teacher. Attending our Friday night dances as well as the group classes will allow you to work with other members of our staff and perhaps find a better match. As always, the management staff is available to help you in anyway that they can.
