Are you beyond the level of our progressive lessons? SASDS might pay for you to take lessons on Tuesdays at Four on the Floor. Read the Program Description for the details.
Notes on Lessons
You can take either classes with or without a partner -- most people come without a partner. In the group lessons we recommend that leads and follows rotate amongst the other dancers to learn better leading and following technique.
Comfortable shoes are recommended. Tennis shoes work very well. If you want a little slide, put masking tape on the bottom or get leather put on the bottom of your shoes. If you don't have these things, just wear something that sticks to your foot. New dancers should avoid high-heeled shoes, footwear with heavy treads, and shoes that can easily slip off your foot.
