Classical Acting
Social Dance
​Suggested Age: 12+
​
This is not a strictly ballroom dance class, but instead focus on social dance steps. We touch on basic waltz, cha-cha, and triple swing steps (that can be done without a partner) as well as what we call "decade dancing." Students will learn popular dance steps from the 1920's to the present day (such as the Charleston, the Lindy Hop, the Twist, etc.). Favorite Polar Star line dances, as well as some new ones, will also be thrown into the mix.
The focus will be on increasing confidence on the dance floor and increasing confidence in learning new dance steps. The hope is that youth will be more prepared for stake dances, country dancing, and if they take ballroom dance in the future.
