These two different experienced instructors will be on hand to make sure everyone is having a great time. The afternoon promises to be a fun event for first-timers and savvy dancers alike. Spectators and “People Watchers” are welcome too. Don’t worry about the ten-gallon hat or boots, just bring a pair of shoes that will glide across the tile. And don’t forget to invite a friend.
