WEDNESDAYS

Discover Ballroom - The Right Way To Get Started with Kelley Kennon

  • 7:00pm - 7:45pm
  • Learn the first 3 basic steps contained in the Fred Astaire Social Bronze Syllabus for Cha Cha, Rumba, East Coast Swing, Waltz, Tango and Foxtrot.
  • This is an ongoing class that randomly rotates between these 6 dances. It has no beginning and no end. This is the perfect group class for beginners that will teach you to have fun dancing and feel comfortable to get up and dance at any social dancing event.
  • Learning to dance correctly from the beginning is very important. When you learn from the Fred Astaire syllabus as opposed to someone just teaching you a mish-mash of steps, you reduce the amount of time and money spent to learn to dance and, even more importantly, you learn to dance properly with no BAD HABITS.  Learning from our syllabus gives you the ABC's of dancing.

  • No partner or experience required
  • This class is designed for new dancers and those who wish to brush up on their basics.
