Dance Styles

Sometimes it seems that there are as many types of dance as there are types of music. At Uptown we teach over thirty distinct dance styles! If you're a beginner it may be a little overwhelming at first, but you will be pleasantly surprised at how fast you can learn to dance to a number of different styles. If you're an accomplished dancer we encourage you to get out of the box and "taste" something different, you may like it. Regardless your level of experience in time you'll be sure to settle on particular favorites. In addition, you'll frequently find that it's possible to dance different dances to the same song — some Rumbas are good Boleros, some Quicksteps are good for East Coast Swing, etc. Whatever your preference, we'll see you on the dance floor!
