Dancing

Ballroom Dance for Beginners

Step onto the dance floor with a beginner-friendly ballroom class designed for adults who want to learn in a relaxed, social setting. Instruction begins with the basics of classic styles such as Waltz, Foxtrot, and Rumba. No partner is required, and partners rotate throughout the session so everyone gets a chance to practice together. No prior experience is needed. It is a fun way to stay active while meeting new people. The cost is $15 per person. Comfortable clothing is recommended. Shoes without rubber soles work best, but sneakers are fine if that is what you have.

All experience levels are welcome. Tools are supplied. Bring sturdy gloves, plenty of water, and an appreciation for Florida’s natural landscapes.
