Thank you for taking an interest in dancing & welcome to our classes. If this is your first experience dancing, we're sure you'll enjoy the Beginning Classes we offer. If you have danced before, hopefully, we'll give you some new moves, polish your technique or help you develop your own style of dancing. We offer a variety of classes to allow everyone an opportunity to learn at your own pace.
WHERE & WHEN ARE CLASSES HELD:
Beginning & Intermediate classes for Couples Only & Singles are held on Tuesday evenings at the Full Circle Venue, 1010 Diers Avenue, K-Mart Plaza in Grand Island.  For Group Classes, everyone is required to change partners throughout the class.  Changing partners will greatly enhance your leading and following skills and help introduce you to all of the other couples and singles learning to dance.  Classes on Tuesdays are 40 minutes in length and run in 4 week sessions ~ we know other things come up, but please try to attend each week.  Tuesday classes will be 40 minutes in length and classes are at 6:30, 7:15, 8:00 & 8:45.

If we have enough couples pre-registered, Couples Only Intermediate classes are on Wednesdays at Third City Taekwondo, 210 W 2nd Street in Grand Island.  All new dancers to DanceSteps must start with Beginning Class unless you have talked to one of the instructors first.  Beginning Dancers need approval from instructors before moving onto Beginning/Intermediate and Intermediate classes.  Wednesday Couples Only classes are at 7:00 & classes will be 55 minutes in length and we will not change partners.

While you participate in group classes & get to know our wonderful group of dancers, we want you to know we are available for private lessons.  Whether you want to perfect a certain move or just improve your overall dancing ability, private lessons are designed for one on one instruction. Private lessons are tailored to your individual needs. Remember, the better you know the basics, the more fun you will have dancing.  If you see someone dancing & you like the way they look, remember it normally has taken many years to reach that level of dancing.
NOTE ~ We reserve the right to cancel classes because of low attendance, weather or when instructors are on vacation or at conventions.
