Group Classes
are the most affordable option. The cons are
their set schedules and lack of personal attention. They are a
lot of fun, though, and a very social way to learn. Most
people start with 1 session per month. Each class is 40
minutes long. The session fee includes the end-of-the-month
Group Practice.
1
session per month - $35/single, $65/couple -
usually 4 classes
2 sessions per month - $55/single,
$100/couple - usually 8
classes
3 sessions per month - $75/single,
$135/couple - usually 12
classes
Private
Lessons are the most flexible and personalized option. You
can start any time and schedule your lessons for a variety of days
and times. You choose whatever dance(s) you want to learn and
your instructor teaches to your particular strengths and weaknesses.
Most students start out with a block of 4 lessons. Private
lessons are 50 minutes long and can be shared by up to two couples.
1 lesson at a time - $70
4 lesson block - $240
8
lesson block - $450
12
lesson block - $600
Private-Group Lessons are a fun way for a group of friends,
family, or co-workers to all learn together in their own class.
Like private lessons, you can start any time and schedule your
lessons at a variety of days and times. Like group classes,
they're very affordable. For a group of 6-30 the price is $100 per lesson. You do need to have
equal numbers of leaders and followers (usually guys and gals) for a
private group, and additional participants will not be allowed to
join after the second lesson unless you start a new dance.
Private-group lessons are 50 minutes long.
Wedding
Preparation Workshops are designed to help couples and families
prepare for their special dances and the revelry of the reception.
The intensive 3 week format features box-step patterns for Foxtrot,
Waltz, & Rumba as well as the basics of East Coast Swing.
These workshops are generally taught once a season. Pre-registration is required, and the days/times are listed on the
Class Calendar. Each weekly lesson lasts for an hour and
fifteen minutes, and the cost is $100 per couple for the 3
week session.
