ABOUT OUR GROUP CLASS PROGRAM
NO PARTNER NEEDED!


Partners are rotated throughout the class to improve lead & follow skills and to add to the FUN.
========================================================


ABOUT OUR GROUP CLASSES


Our group class program is a structured curriculum, designed to take you from your first steps on up. 
Our STANDARD COURSES are 6 weeks and have designated learning levels such as Beginner 1, Beginner 2, Beyond Beginner, Intermediate 1, etc.  Each learning level includes multiple courses, so students should expect to move through the various levels at a gradual pace.  We also have SPECIALTY COURSES that range from 2 to 4 weeks. 

Always remember that unless otherwise noted, partners are rotated throughout the class. Pre-registration is required for all of the above-mentioned courses.

WORKSHOPS are offered as supplements to the standard curriculum.  

Some of these classes require pre-registration; however, most allow at-the-door admission.

TOP

TECHNIQUE CLASSES are individual sessions focused on improving form and execution.  They may include styling, body development, movement mechanics, or theory.  These classes allow you to register at the door or get a discount for pre-registering.

Our BYOP CLASSES are special sessions which require you "bring your own partner".  It is in these group classes only that we do not rotate partners.  Most of these classes require pre-registration, but some allow you to register at the door or get a discount for pre-registering.

TECHNIQUE CLASSES &

SPECIALTY COURSES

"Every advanced dancer is in love with the basics."-- W. Deagen

What are Technique classes and why should I attend them?

Technique is the HOW that must eventually be applied to the WHAT.   These classes focus on developing quality of movement, body mechanics, control, and proper execution.  This will not only make your dancing look better; more importantly, it will make it FEEL better -- both to you and your partner.  

top

Do I need them if I'm just a beginner?

Those who work on learning technique right from the start will progress much more quickly AND efficiently than those who wait.  Granted, as a new learner you will not yet have full appreciation for every little bit and piece, but you will be very pleased with how this knowledge helps you progress. 

(And so will your partners!)

Do I need them if I'm already advanced?

Let me be candid with you.  If you have to ask that question, you're not as advanced as you think you are.

SEMI-PRIVATE LESSONS

Combining the best of private instruction and group class learning

In a semi-private lesson, you experience the ideal balance between private instruction and group class learning.  Like a group class, a semi-private lesson is taught as part of a course with a specific agenda of dances, variations and outcomes.  Like a private lesson, each couple receives individual attention and recommendations for learning better.  

We currently have several on-going semi-private courses.   Please let us know if you are interested in this type of instruction so that we can notify you when openings become available.

 

OR team up with another couple or two and get with us to form your very own personalized semi-private course.  Semi-private sessions are available for 2 or 3 couples.  TOP

Scroll down for current courses being offered.

   

Special “3-week-3-couple” courses

Tuition:  $99 per couple

Call us for available openings.

Enrollment limited to 3 couples per course

POLICIES FOR SEMI-PRIVATE COURSES:

A semi-private course is a 3-lesson / 3-couple course.

The day, time, and dates are pre-set. 

There are no make up classes nor credits for missed lessons.

Partners are NOT rotated on semi-private lessons.

No video taping is allowed on semi-private lesson.

Standard course cancellation policy applies.

POLICIES FOR PARTNER DANCE CLASSES

 

Please review all information before registering

 

• Pre-registration is required for all courses. Tuition must accompany registration.

   A place cannot be held for you in a class without your paid tuition.

• Tuition rates are per person unless otherwise specified.

• Class size is limited; early registration is recommended.

• There are no make up classes nor credits for absences.

• No video taping is allowed in any group classes.

• Classes are not open for observation.

top

• DRESS CODE restrictions: No sleeveless shirts for men, no midriff or revealing tops for ladies.

• It is our standard practice to rotate partners in all group classes. This not only makes learning more fun, but it helps to develop lead & follow skills. Private instruction, semi-private and/or BYOP classes are available for students who do not wish to rotate partners.


• While it is not practical to guarantee an even number of men and ladies for every class, pre-registration allows us to keep a comparable male/female ratio.  Obviously, we have no control over absences, but our partner rotation system ensures fairness to everyone.  Also, we have members of our support staff available for every class to assist us as needed.


• There is a minimum number of students required in order for each class to make. Late registration may be available, but we strongly encourage getting registered early. Because class size is limited, classes often fill; and registration is always on a first come, first served basis.

top

For your general information, know that our group classes meet as scheduled except in the case of extreme weather conditions.

Should weather advisory ever direct that people stay inside their homes and not travel except in emergency situations, classes will be cancelled. Notice of cancellation will always be posted on this site at the top of this Current Schedule page AND will be added to our voice mail.  Students will be offered a credit for the missed class should they choose to accept it.

7 days in advance of the course start date in order

to receive a refund or credit.

Dell Village is one of the original strip centers in the neighborhood

and is a noticeably OLDER center. It has a BIG YELLOW SIGN on top of the building that says DELL VILLAGE.  Our studio is on the end and has Wanda Deagen Studio

in the window. Do not get Dell Village confused with Dellview which is the newly

are Latch and Freiling.

You may choose to get onto Vance Jackson off of either Loop 410 or I-10.

We are south of Loop 410 (inside the Loop) and north of I-10.

If coming from Loop 410, we are 3 blocks past the famous La Fogata restaurant,

(on the right hand side).

If coming from I-10, we are at the 3rd traffic light on Vance Jackson at Freiling,

on the left hand side, just past the Wal-Mart super center shopping complex,

BUSINESS HOURS  We do not keep regular business hours since a large part

of our teaching is done on an appointment basis.  We recommend you call ahead

before stopping by the studio to be sure we will be available at that time.

CONTACTING US
 
Our business phone is a cellular number so that we can

personally answer your phone calls in a more timely fashion; however, know

that we do not interrupt lessons to answer the phone and you should always

be prepared to leave a voice mail.
