About this event

A six-week beginner series with Elizabeth Converse of Lavender Ballroom Dance

Build on the skills you’re learning or start from scratch, this class is for you!

If you’ve always wanted to dance but weren’t sure you could, this is the place to start. You don’t need to know anything because we start at the beginning. You don’t need a partner because we rotate partners in class. You don’t need special gear, just carry in clean, dry shoes so we protect the wood floor.

This round we learn Rumba and East Coast Swing. Rumba is a slow, romantic Latin dance just made for connection. East Coast Swing is lively, playful, and built for upbeat music. Over 6 weeks we go from the basic step to being able to dance a full song in each dance, with weekly handouts and follow-up emails with YouTube links to help you practice.

✨ What to Expect

Class size is limited so everyone gets some personal attention and no one gets lost in the crowd. Lead and follow are non-gendered, so choose the side that suits you best. Partners rotate in class.

💛 Who It’s For

Brand new dancers, returning dancers, and anyone who wants a friendly place to learn. If you’ve danced before and need to brush up or expand your dance knowledge, starting from the beginning gives you the chance to review what you remember and refine what may have gotten rusty. No partner and no experience needed.

👟 What to Bring

Comfortable clothes you can move in, a water bottle, and a separate pair of clean, dry indoor shoes to change into so we can protect the wood floor. No special dance shoes required.
