Learning to Dance
with a Partner
Do you wish you could dance like they do on
"Dancing with the Stars"? For many people
ballroom dancing is just a fantasy because
they think they are uncoordinated and so
they think they can't learn to dance. But I
have seen the most uncoordinated people
become very good dancers. How did they
do it? Determination!
Learning to dance gives you confidence and
improves social skills. Many people have
met their significant others and best friends
through social dancing (including me!)
Learning to dance is also good for the brain
and is equivalent to learning a new
language. When older people learn to
dance it improves their cognitive skills. No
wonder they say that dancing keeps you
young!

| One of the easiest dances to learn; fun and energetic: East Coast Swing |
| Salsa! |
| Fox Trot! Great dance to know for weddings and events! |
| The Waltz is rhythmic and flowing. With the right partner you feel like you are floating on a cloud! |
So where do you start? Start by finding a group class or private instructor if you prefer private lessons. Usually
you will not need a partner to start because you will rotate partners in group classes in order to develop leading
and following skills. And if you can't find a local class in your area you can start with dance instructional videos.
Take a look at some of the dance videos on this page and maybe you will be inspired to learn to dance!
Also, check out these other dance pages on my site: So You Think You Can Dance, dancing with the stars,
