Dance Night
A great way to enjoy some time with your partner is dancing? No experience necessary to learn fun social/ballroom dance styles in a welcoming environment. Dance Night is available weekly, yet there is no obligation to come every week. Just drop in when you can.
The cost is $10 (4-class card: $35) or $8 for students with valid ID (4-class card: $25). Limited bar service available. Cash only, please. Doors open at 6pm with lessons starting at 6:30pm, followed by open dancing until 8:30pm.
Dance Night focus on a different dance style each month. Most moves are interchangeable, and you’ll notice your skills improve across all styles. You may find you enjoy it and make it a regular date night!
