Ballroom Dancing Schools and Lessons on Long Island

Learn How to Ballroom Dance at These Schools on Long Island

Scott Kessman
When I was younger, I would never have considered ballroom dancing to have been a useful skill, but now, as I seem to be continually attending weddings and other affairs such as New Years Eve parties and other similar celebrations, it is especially relevant.

I must admit, being able to move gracefully about the dancefloor during a waltz or merengue is satisfyingly fulfilling, and your partner, in my case my wife, will certainly appreciate your newfound skills.

Whether you want to learn the techniques and moves to various dances for your own wedding, for exercise, or just for fun, there are a few places to learn ballroom dancing on Long Island.

One such place that teaches ballroom dancing lessons is aptly named Ballroom Dance Long Island, and is located conveniently in Garden City, Babylon, Valley Stream, and Selden. The instructor at Ballroom Dance Long Island will even come to your home if you desire.

Offering private lessons or private group lessons (useful for wedding parties), Ballroom Dance Long Island specializes in wedding dances and will grant a free 1/2 hour lesson as a tryout.

Teaching a variety of dances for over 10 years, including Swing, Salsa, Tango, and more, Ballroom Dance Long Island strives to provide you with total satisfaction during your lessons and will train you at your convenience, with affordable prices per lesson. A long-term commitment is not required, and gift certificates are also available. You can visit the Ballroom Dance Long Island website for more information at http://www.ballroomdancelongisland.com.

The Ballroom Academy of Long Island has locations in East Meadow, Huntington, and Northport, and offers private lessons, group lessons, or workshop classes. You can schedule a free introductory lesson first to see if the Ballroom Academy of Long Island is the right environment for you.

the Ballroom Academy of Long Island pecializes in a number of American and International ballroom dance styles, including the waltz, foxtrot, swing, hustle, and many more, including some specialty dances not taught at other ballroom dance schools on Long Island, such as the Peabody and the Lindy Hop.

On the Ballroom Academy of Long Island website, at http://www.ballroomacademy.com, you'll find a brief history of all the dances, as well as comprehensive information on the lessons available, so you can easily choose what might be best for you.

The Long Island Dance Connection has been offering inexpensive lessons in various styles of dance at weekly gatherings at the 56th Fighter Group Restaurant in Farmingdale, NY. Currently teaching Salsa, Latin, Swing and Hustle blended with other styles of ballroom dancing, your dance lessons will include a free hot and cold buffet dinner in the wonderful lounge of the restaurant.

Great for learning to dance and socializing, The Long Island Dance Connection is a good introduction to ballroom dancing for beginners who might not be sure about fully committing to lessons at a dance school. For more information, please visit their website at http://www.lidance.org/salsa.html
