Those who have done jazz and ballroom dancing will enjoy this form of dance, too. Dances will be varied and suited for beginner and experienced students. Wear clothing that is comfortable and cool, and shoes should also be comfortable and not difficult to dance on (I.e. shoes that don't stick to the floor and make it difficult to move the feet). After class starts, you can still drop in. Drop-in Fee is $10 per class
