Ballroom Dancing:

There are many reasons to take a ballroom dance class: it is great exercise, you get to listen to great music and socialize with great people, and you even improve your posture and grace.  Perhaps the best reason, though, is to simply experience the “magic” of ballroom dancing—when pixie dust floats down from the ceiling and you suddenly feel yourself floating across the dance floor.  Of course to get to that point, you need to learn a few things first.  That is where this course comes in.  Each month I teach just one dance so you can master some of its Beginner- and Intermediate-level patterns; I also supply a sprinkling of stylistics to help you smooth out your dancing.  (The pixie dust usually arrives towards the end of the third lesson.)

Instructor:
Michael Mattek is a faculty member of the UW-Colleges English Department, and faculty advisor/instructor for the student ballroom dance club at UWWC.   He has over a decade of experience teaching ballroom and swing dancing in the Milwaukee, Janesville, and West Bend areas.
