1666 Rt 12 Gales Ferry, CT (in the Job Lot Plaza)

Check us out at DanceCountryCT.com or call 860-941-4479 or email DanceCountryCT@gmail.com

****Schedule is subject to change for weather or additions of other fun events.  ****

Beginner line dance- Never danced before or very little experience

Improver- Able to do 15 to 20 beginner dances and know all of the basic beginner steps.

Intermediate line dance- Able to pick up all beginner dances on the fly and can learn more complicated dances at a quicker pace. Many (but not all) of the improver and intermediate dances taught overlap but the pace of the teaching is faster than in the improver class.

Beginner partner- It is highly recommended that you have taken session or at least a few beginner line dance classes first and have learned the basic steps. This makes learning partner dances much easier as you will need to add in the arm work and working with a partner. You don’t need to have a partner for our beginner class. Come and we will pair you up if needed.

Advanced partner class- Confident with all the line dance steps and able to execute the beginner partner dances. Partners needed for this class.

Our fall/winter classes are run in 8 week sessions for $120, except where noted below. For NEW friends who want to try it out they can pay $20 for first class and then decide whether to sign up for the session. Please help us by spreading the word and inviting friends

Advanced Step Workshop- For those planning to move from beginner to improver level classes or those in improver level wanting to master the steps.  It’s OK and (and a good thing) to take this more than once. $30/person.  Please sign up online or in person by Oct 15th– if there are less than 10 signed up the class will be cancelled. 

  • Sunday Oct 26th 1:00PM to 3:15PM

Beginner Introduction to Line Dancing- ($5/person).  Never Danced before and want to know what it’s all about and give it a try before committing to one of our beginner sessions?  All are welcome. Kids who are old enough to focus for an hour class are welcome with a participating adult.  We will answer all of your questions, demo some dances, teach you some basic steps and then teach you a dance or two.  Only $5 to give it a try.  Grab all of your friends and we will have some of our instructors and dancers there as well to help out.  You do not have to stay the whole time and can come late if work is an issue.  This is the BEST time to see how much fun line dancing can be!
