Fourth Friday Dances
7:30 p.m. – 10:00 p.m. (On hold until we can gather safely again.)
Lesson at 7:30 p.m. at all dances
Dance 8:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m. with light refreshments
Although our in-person Fourth Friday Dances are on hold until we can gather safely again, be sure to sign up for our DanceSMART Rewards Card. Attend any five dances and get the next dance free! All guests will also be eligible for the monthly door prize drawings for great prizes provided by The Ballroom Dance Center and businesses within the community.
We continue a long tradition of fun and energetic social dances for our students. The perfect learning triad of group and private lessons is completed by attending parties! That saying “Practice makes perfect!” is true, especially within a warm, hospitable environment where the total beginner to the advanced dancer is welcomed. Also open to the general public, all dancers will enjoy putting to use what they learn on lessons in a social setting.
Our dances are offered once a month, usually on the Fourth Friday, at the studio, with refreshments and, occasionally, a few performance numbers. The staff, instructors and dance hosts circulate to invite guests to dance and to even show them a new step or two. A helpful and entertaining lesson is offered at the beginning of each dance. At some dances, the dance card system is used where pre-registered students get to dance with the teachers, dance hosts and staff on a pre-assigned rotation for the first part of the dance. Admission to our Fourth Friday Dances is $15 per person.
