Private Lessons

Private lessons are ABSOLUTELY the most effective and efficient way
to learn ballroom dancing. The one on one instruction between a
professional instructor and student is the BEST way to produce results
and enhance all aspects of ballroom dancing! Not everyone learns the
same way. For that reason, your instructor will find the most suitable
way to teach YOU the dances YOU want to learn and at YOUR own
pace. Please do not hesitate to call us at (858) 451-3775 with any
questions that you might have. Our friendly Front Desk Staff will have
you out on the dance floor 1, 2, three!

Types of Programs

1. Introductory Program - This program is designed as an

introduction to the popular social dances. This allows your teacher
an opportunity to take care of your immediate dancing needs and
to evaluate your future ones.
2. General Variety - This program will develop several of your
essential social dances to a comfortable competent social standard.
Emphasis is placed on the three most important elements of
dancing namely foot positions, rhythm, and timing and leading and
following.
3. Associate Bronze - This is the program for the impatient dancer
who wants everything. It will develop free flowing movement
around the dance floor, much more variety, technique, footwork
and your first introduction to styling, that is those sensuous latin
movements and that smooth flowing grace. This program is
popular with those people that want to look good on the dance
floor right away.
4. Full Bronze - This is the full social standard. This level of styling
will have you looking very comfortable and confident on the dance
floor. It will strengthen your lead and follow to the point that no
matter who your partner is, what kind of music is playing, or what
type of dance floor your on, you will look poised and comfortable
with all the popular dances steps and many variations. It will give
you all the confidence you will ever need on the dance floor. This
is the fun point in dancing when you don't have to think about
 anything except enjoying your partner and feeling the flow with
the music.
5. Silver - Silver is a dance standard with a high degree of styling.
Flashy movements make this standard stand out on the dance floor.
Continuity of movement enables a couple to glide around the
dance floor with great sophistication and grace. Technique is very
important to develop this type of movement. This is the first true
step to an International Style of dancing.
6. Gold - Strictly for the hobby dancer who enjoys dancing for it's
own sake or for the person who enjoys exhibitions. It's intricate
patterns are only to be used when both people know what they are
doing. Choreography, Styling, Technique and Showmanship are
necessities in this standard. The smoothness and control make this
a beautiful standard to sit and watch. You had better be prepared to
be here a while and work hard if this is your standard, but you will
truly be regarded as an outstanding dancer, able to excel in any
dance there is.

Class Definitions

Adult Ballet - Ballet builds self-confidence, good posture and strong

limber muscles. Whether the student is dancing professionally, or just
for recreation, ballet training will enable a student to explore their
natural love of movement.

Adult Hip Hop - Whether you’re looking to pick up a few moves, get
some exercise, meet new people or just have a lot of fun, we’ve got it all
here for you. A genre of dance that incorporates a certain style of
creativity, attitude, music, posture, and choreography. This genre stems
from early urban influences of rap and the inner city streets where many
