Questions & Answers

What kind of music do you play?

Over the past year I update the playlist weekly. We play country, pop, tango related, salsa related, and any music that accommodates the music you will find at any nightclub that offers dancing. When we start the evening dance at 8pm I am always open to request. Ideally, send me your favorite songs before Friday so I can add them to the playlist!

Is every lesson open to beginners

At the present time yes. Until we get a cadre of regulars that want more advance moves and that demonstrate dance competency, in order to pay the rent we will continue to allow newbies to attend any lesson.

How do I pay in advance or when I arrive?

There is a page on the website you can pay by credit card using Stripe on an encrypted site. You can also pay cash at the door. There is also a QR code for either Venmo or your CC.

How late is dancing on Friday's

We have the VFW floor every Friday night from 8pm until 9:45pm. Come and practice if you've taken lessons in the past. The more you practice the more fun it gets.

How often do you recommend coming to become competent?

Like anything in life, whatever you practice and repeat you get better at. After a lesson, I highly recommend for the first couple weeks to practice for 5-10 minutes minimum to remember what you learned in class. That discipline will also help you the next time you are in class because you'll see subtleties that you otherwise would have missed when overwhelm kicks in during class.

Where can I use what I learn in class?

Dancing is a universal language. You can dance at parties, weddings or at the local nightclub. Dancing is also a great attunement exercise. The more attuned you are to your dance partner the more fun it get's. It's a great way to build a deeper bond in your intimate relationships.
