Group Lessons

Shall We Dance? Houston group lessons are a fun way to meet people and learn to social dance. Emphasis is on lead/follow as students are taught to dance in a social setting. Partners are rotated throughout the class, allowing students to experience dancing with different people as well as getting to know each other. Group lessons are usually four weeks long, with classes meeting for one hour each week at the designated time. Group lessons progress from level to level, with a structured syllabus being taught at each level. You do not need a partner to take a group class.

Private Lessons

Private lessons are ideal for those students whose schedule does not permit them to attend a group class, students who want to progress at their own pace (fast or slow), students who are more serious about the technical aspects of dancing, or anyone who prefers a private lesson to a group class. Some students use private lessons to supplement what they have learned in a group class. Whatever the reason, private lessons are a great way for a person or a couple to get personalized instruction. Shall We Dance? Houston instructors will arrange private lessons at your convenience.
