QUESTION: What types of dance do you teach?
We offer instruction in all Ballroom (foxtrot, waltz, tango, etc), Latin (cha cha cha, salsa, rumba, etc) and Swing (east & west coast, jive, hustle, etc) dances. We are also the only school in town qualified to teach both International and American styles up to the professional competitive level. In addition, we teach basic social dance skills useful for weddings or cruises!

QUESTION: Why dance?
Dancing at DSC has many benefits! Our Cardio Latin Class burns away stress and calories! Our students rave how quickly they get in shape and start to feel more envigorated. DSC also provides a great social outlet and adds romance to our students' lives! You'll laugh more and begin to notice a 'spring in your step' that wasn't there before!

QUESTION: What is DanceSport?
DanceSport is the term used for competitive Ballroom and Latin dance. We chose to use this term in our name to express the high caliber of training and performing our teachers have achieved and to express the highest capacity to which we are qualified to train our students.

QUESTION: I've never danced before, will I be able to learn how to dance?
Yes, even though DSC has turned out some of the greatest competitive dancers in the city, we pride ourselves on being a very beginner friendly environment. With classes geared to the most novice of newcomers, our instructors are not only warm, friendly and encouraging, but also well skilled in breaking down dance concepts to their most basic form.

QUESTION: I have a very busy schedule. How will learning to dance fit into it?
Because of DSC's flexible hours, most students are able to comfortably fit one or two hours per week of dance time into their lives. We offer lessons by appointment weekdays from 10am to 10pm and Saturdays from 10am to 5pm. Also, a variety of prescheduled group sessions are available throughout the week!

QUESTION: Can I take lesson at both DSC locations?
Absolutely! Students are welcome to attend dance classes and dance events at either studio location. We are one big happy family and invite all DSC students to participate in any studio's classes or activities!

QUESTION: How much do lessons cost?
At DSC we don't believe in generic packages. All of our students are on customized dance plans specific to their dance goals and pay a monthly tuition based on their goals, needs and personal circumstances.

QUESTION: How long will it take for me to learn to dance?
Like most skills or hobbies, dancing is a learned activity that takes time for your body to become physically comfortable doing. It takes the average student six months to become a comfortable social dancer. However, many students of DSC love the studio and dancing so much that dancing here becomes a lifelong hobby and passion!
