SALSA DANCE
At our Salsa Dance parties you will pimarily dance Salsa the entire evening. So, if you only have time to
learn one dance style before you come, learn Salsa. Salsa Dances are much easier to break into since you can learn one dance style and dance to almost
every song. However the Salsa style is a fast dance, so if you have time to learn a little before you come that would give you a great head start!

SWING DANCE
Though you can dance a number of different dance styles on our Swing Dance nights, there is only one style
you need to know. If you learn Jitterbug you can dance to every song that is played in an evening. Once you get good with your Jitterbug, start to learn
the other styles listed below and in the order we have them listed. Though you can dance Jitterbug to every song, some of those same songs actually
make you want to dance one or more of the other styles. Though Jitterbugs can be fast you will find that breaking into our Swing Dances as a non-dancer
is your easiest way into the dance world!
