Private Lessons

As highly personalized instruction, private lessons are the fastest way to learn. They are a great way to get started and learn some basics before trying group classes and social parties. Mix in private lessons with group classes to get personalized feedback on what you have learned and avoid forming bad habbits.

Independent Practice

One of the best things you can do to improve your dancing is practice. Even though partner dancing is done with a partner, you are responsible for remember your part so practicing without a partner is a great way to practice your own rhythm, patterns, and body movement. For leaders, this is a great time to refresh yourself on what patterns you know how to lead .

Group Classes

The easiest (and cheapest) way to learn new patterns are group classes at a dance studio. One instructor will teach a large number of students and you usually rotate partners to get practice dancing with lots of people. These classes may not be the best way to get started with a new dance style and often don't focus on technique. Add in some private lessons to get the most out of what you learn in the group classes.

Social Practice

Most people learn partner dancing in order to actually go dance. Social dances or parties are often held monthly or weekly at dance studios and are a great opportunity to meet people, socialize, and use everything you've been learning to have a great time.
