Cost: $1.00 per person per session, $.50 for practice time.

Method:

A single dance is taught over a period of time, usually 4-6 weeks. Emphasis will be placed on understanding the character of a particular dance and development of confidence and poise on the dance floor. Students are expected to practice steps and techniques between lessons.

When the regular teacher is not available, an experienced member of the club may conduct a review or teach a new step. If no one present feels comfortable teaching, a DVD or tape may be used.

Current Lesson Plan (subject to change):

The Club plans to hold Tea Dances during the winter months. They will be held on Sunday afternoons. We are hoping for at least sport jackets and and ties from the men, and dresses from the women. Snacks and soft drinks will be served. Music will be chosen that supports specific dances, as opposed to trying to figure out what dance to do to what the band is playing. The cost is $3.00. The tea dances are open to registered club members and their guests only.
