Salsa For Couples:  Salsa is the hot, hot, hottest of the Latin American dances! Characterized by explosive movements, its beat is lively and sensuous and makes you want to get up and move. Come enjoy this easy-to-learn, fun dance step and get hooked. Expect to change partners during the class. The beginner section is for those who have little to no experience with salsa dancing. Wear leather-soled shoes. Monday, June 6^th, 2011 from 6:00PM to 7:00PM; 4 sessions: $125/$115 Members

Ballroom Dance Basics: So you think you can’t dance? Think again! Learn the basics of North American and Latin American dancing and discover how much fun you can have on the dance floor. We’ll cover the waltz, the two-step, the fox trot, and more! Don’t have a dancing partner? No problem! No partner required for this class. One registration per person, please, not per couple. Suitable for students with little or no ballroom experience, and for more experienced dancers who’d like a refresher course.  Monday, June 6^th, 2011 from 7:00PM to 8:00PM; 4 sessions: $125/$115 Members

Merengue & Cha Cha: The Merengue emerged from the rural areas of the Dominican Republic and Haiti in the 18th century and is so named because of its fast hip motion that resembles an egg beater in action. In this rousing class, you will learn the basic dance steps of these two popular dances as well as ways to embellish them with turns, magic hands, and the incorporation of other Latin dances. Monday, June 6^th, 2011 from 8:00PM to 9:00PM; 4 sessions: $110/$95 Members
