What's it like?

Every dance has its own flavor. Our favorite flavors:

• Kind, generous, mutually respectful dancing
• How the dancing feels is more important than how it looks
• Making your partner's happiness more important than your own
• Waltz etcetera a special dance, with a very sweet feeling: friendly, easygoing, noncompetitive.
• Over the years, we've developed a loyal following of people who resonate with those ideas. They are an amazing bunch of dancers.
