Beginner Ballroom Dance Workshop - Edmonton

Northmount Community Hall

Northmount Community Hall
9208 140 Ave, Edmonton

Our ballroom dance workshops are a great place to have fun while learning the basics of ballroom dancing. You will not only learn the basics - like how to waltz, rumba, fox trot and jive - instructors Mike and Michele Barter will also teach ballroom etiquette. These workshops have trained several generations of homeschoolers in the art of ballroom dance. Students benefit from the training in social graces as well as the opportunity to spend time with other home schoolers. 

Anyone under the age of 18 will need to have a registered parent or guardian present at the workshop/ball.

Open to non-WISDOM families; WISDOM families take precedence.
