June 16, 23 & 30 Ballroom Dance Classes with Ballroom Bliss click here for coupon
Rumba/Cha-Cha Session

Dates: June 16, 23, 30 & Jul 7 at 7pm

This Latin-infused session will cover the basic rumba and Cha-Cha (think Santana’s “Smooth”). The Rumba will improve your balance and control, while the Cha-Cha will develop your sense of rhythm and syncopation. This is a great warm-up for our 8pm class, the TANGO!

American Style Tango Session
Dates: June 16, 23, 30 & July 7 at 8pm

The Tango has been featured in many films and burned forever in our minds as the most earthy and dramatic social dance to date. Remember Antonio Banderes in that steamy tango scene in “Take the Lead”? Or the intense tango scene with Richard Gere and Jennifer Lopez in “Shall We Dance?” Who could forget Al Pacino in “The Scent of a Woman?” With that inspiration in mind, the Tango is the most challenging dance to learn. Therefore we require that you take the 7pm Rumba/Cha-Cha class or have at least six months of social ballroom dance experience. Get ready for a sultry start to your summer with the Tango!

The cost for each 4-week session is $40 for singles and $72 per couple. Or drop in for a single class at $12 per person. Each session will be followed by a social dance party with music, dancing, snacks and decorations. In each session, instructors Doug and Kimberlee McHugh will introduce a ballroom dance style with enough material to get students comfortable on the dance floor. Basic steps will be taught with additional steps and styling each week. Dress is casual and smooth-soled shoes are highly recommended. To register, please call (508) 760-4071 or email ballroom_bliss@verizon.net. click here for coupon
