Q-3. How are Nannette’s group dance classes structured?
A-3.
Our classes are structured to provide sequential training from introductory classes that provide basics, for those who have never danced before, to advanced training for those who have moved through the ranks to a high level of social dance proficiency.

  • Most people begin with an Introductory Class, like our Introduction to Ballroom
  • After completing Intro to Ballroom everyone continues into one of our Beginners Classes. Beginners Classes focus on one dance at a time for the entire 8 week class period. Once you have completed an 8-week Beginners Class in a specific dance you may then graduate to an intermediate class in that dance, continued by an advanced class in that dance.

Q-4.  What should I wear to class?

Please feel free to wear any clothing you are comfortable in. Most people dress farily casual. Some people come in whatever they wore to work that day.

Q-5.  Do I need to come with a Partner?

No, no partner necessary! We change partners in class because that’s the best way to learn.

Smooth soled shoes that stay on your feet are best. Backless shoes and tennis shoes, or rubber  soled shoes are the hardest to learn in.

At Nannette’s Inc. we have practice CDs available for $25 that have the best collection of music for all the dances that we’ve seen. Borders also has a Ballroom section that you may want to check out.
