If the concept of "dancing with a partner, or leading and following", is a total mystery to you, the best way to get started is with a combination of private lessons and group classes.
After one private lesson, Kathleen will best be able to advise you regarding your next step toward achieving your particular goal.

Unlike most social dance instructors, Ms. Corey integrates much of the technique and styling normally only taught in private lessons into her group classes, with lots of personal attention for each student. This can be done because enrollment per class is limited to a manageable number. The results are that Ms. Corey’s students display an uncommon level of mastery, grace and confidence; they don’t just know “steps”, but have learned to lead and follow so well that a first dance with any partner is never an awkward situation.
Good social dancing is about much more than just learning “steps” –
Right from the first class, basics in the following will be introduced:
· Knowing what dance goes with what kind of music
· Foot movements common to all dances
· Relative dance positions between leader and follower
· Understanding rhythm and timing
· How to use the dance floor like a pro
· Technique and styling particular to each dance
· Secrets to leading and following anyone with grace and confidence
Whether you ultimately choose private lessons with Kathleen, or her group classes, perhaps the most important thing is, you’ll be having LOTS of fun!
