About Us

Social Ballroom Dance Studio in Victoria, BC

Our Studio

Our studio has been providing dance education for the Victoria dance community for over 10 years.

Currently, we teach group and private dance lessons for adults and kids. We actively promote ballroom and Latin social dances in partnership with Victoria Ballroom Dance Society. Through this partnership, we introduce the Victoria public to such dances as Waltz, Tango, Foxtrot, Quickstep, ChaCha, Samba, Rumba, and Jive. We also enjoy teaching such dances as West Coast Swing, Hustle, Merengue, and American-style ballroom and Latin dances.

Our method of teaching dance is based on extensive theoretical knowledge of pedagogics, dance sport and physical development. We inspire our students to dream big and never be shy of trying something new, challenging but always fun and exciting.
