Beginning Ballroom Dance Rhythm

Catalog description

Offered during the spring semester, this is a beginning level class that introduces students to four American Rhythm Style ballroom dances - Rumba, Cha Cha, Mambo and Swing. This class will go further in depth than the Beginning Social Ballroom Dance class (PE1150). This class is appropriate for either beginners or students with some experience who wish to further develop their knowledge and skill in the dances covered. Participants will gain some mastery of each dance, develop partnering skills, technique, movement, styling and musicality. It is not necessary to sign up with a partner, however it is recommended to ensure balance between leads and follows. Participants will change partners throughout the class.
