The teachers at The Dance Place stay on top of what's happening in the dance community, and then convey all the latest trends to their students via classes and lessons.
Recently, we've added several new classes to the schedule. Gloria Jones added a Romantic Slow Dance class that is perfect for learning to dance on cruise ships, for those crowded dance floors, or for couples preparing a "first dance" for their weddings. Eddy Deynes teaches two styles of Salsa, one of which is "Salsa on 2," otherwise known as Mambo. Eddy offers 3 levels of Mambo, so there's one that's right for your skill level. Erica Neff offers Bronze, Silver and Gold level Salsa classes which are quite popular. The Hip Hop classes Chris Woodard teaches on Mondays at 7 & 8 PM are a big hit.
With our weekly dances moving to Friday, we thought it would be nice to offer a "Fun With Figures" class that will add some new "fun" figures to your dance groups. That class will be at 7 PM on Fridays beginning April 15th.
Phillip Stephens is offering several classes in the coming months. Beginning on Monday, April 11th, Standard Sequences will be taught at 8 PM with Latin Sequences following at 9 PM. On Tuesdays, beginning April 12, Phillip will teach Bolero at 7 PM and Tango at 8 PM, both at Bronze & Silver level. On Thursdays, starting April 14th, Phillip will teach advanced American Rhythm at 7 PM & Advanced American Ballroom at 8 PM. On Saturdays, starting on April 9th, don't miss Phillip's "Flicks, Kicks & Tricks" class at noon, and be sure to join the "Performance Power" for Latin dancing at 1 PM.
Victor Collins is back and gearing up for more Argentine Tango classes at 8 PM on Wednesdays. Damon & Lisa D'Amico offer Two-Step classes at 8 & 9 PM on Mondays and West Coast Swing classes at 7 & 8 PM on Thursdays. Guennadi Iakounine has several International Standard and Latin classes each week. Vickie Dunn offers Two-Step classes at 4:30 PM on Sundays followed by a Nightclub Two-step class at 5:30 PM.
Michael Smith teaches our Ballroom Basics class at 7 PM on Tuesdays; in this class, you get the basics of six dances in about six weeks. You can take the class again as often as you like, or move on to another class. Phillip Stephens teaches an intermediate level Social Ballroom class at 7 PM on Wednesdays which is another popular class.
All together, The Dance Place offers over 50 class lessons each week. Whether it's Ballroom, Latin, C&W, Hip Hop or Salsa, we've got something on the schedule that should fit your needs.
