Join Us For an Evening of Ballroom and Social Dance
Triangle StarDusters Ballroom Dance Club offers a welcoming space for dance lovers and newcomers to gather monthly to connect with beautiful music and like-minded ballroom dance enthusiasts. Each event features a one-hour lesson by a professional instructor followed by two and a half hours of dancing.
Our Next Dance is on Saturday, October 11th and Will Feature American Style Foxtrot
Foxtrot is the quintessential American ballroom dance. Originating in the jazz age and developed continuously through the 1950s big band era, its simple basic step and smooth gliding motions will have you amazed at how well it captures the happy rhythms of jazzy songs. At this dance, we’ll play the jaunty upbeat songs for which Foxtrot is uniquely suited and your tapping toes will insist that you get on the dance floor to enjoy the music.
As always, getting you up to speed quickly with the basics requires very experienced teachers. We’re pleased to have some exceptional instructors at our October dance. Jonathan Medlin and Malin Allert are renowned teachers and championship competitive ballroom dancers.
