THE FRED ASTAIRE 2 WAY SYSTEM OF TEACHING
At Fred Astaire, we teach both group and private lessons. We feel this is the
fastest and most economical way to become a confident social dancer.
In the Introductory Group Class, you'll learn the basic elements of all ballroom
dances. Group Classes are designed to teach the steps, or SCHOOL FIGURES. To
read more about group classes, click here.
Waltz/Rumba - You'll be introduced to walks and chasses (side steps). You'll
then put these elements into a SCHOOL FIGURE, called a Rumba Box or Waltz Box.
Foxtrot/Tango - You'll be introduced to walks, chasses and rocking steps in
the Foxtrot/Tango Class. You'll also begin to move around the floor, or progress
around the floor, since Foxtrot and Tango are progressive, smooth dances.
Cha Cha/Swing - You'll be introduced to triple steps and rocking steps in the
Cha Cha/Swing Class. You may have time to be introduced to Under-arm turns,
cross over breaks and walk around turns.
In the Introductory Program Private Lesson, you'll be introduced to your private
lesson teacher, and begin to learn how to lead and follow. Private lessons designed
to learn the feel of the dance, to review your group class, and to clarify your
dancing goals. You'll dance around the ballroom to the music with your teacher,
and you'll get to try out your dancing with your partner with your teachers
there to help! We'll teach you as fast as you can learn!
* The Introductory Program is for new students only please. No repeats please.
