Methods of Instruction

 

Group Classes
Group classes are an important part of your dance program. They provide students the opportunity to develop good dance habits, progress at a comfortable pace, and is a great way to meet new people.  Group classes are available for beginner to advanced levels. For the majority of people who are first introduced to ballroom dancing, we recommend they start in our group classes.

Private Lessons
There are many advantages to learning through private lessons. First and foremost, one-on-one instruction is the fastest way to achieve your dancing goals. During your personal training session, your instructor will guide you on technique, styling, floorcraft, and improve your dance skills.  Lessons can be tailored to suit your ability and wishes.  Private lessons are taught at all levels from beginner to competitor, and can be scheduled at your convenience, Monday through Saturday.  Private lessons are scheduled by appointment by calling 610-363-8679.

Group and Private Mix
For students above the beginner level, we recommend taking a combination of group and private lessons to increase confidence on the dance floor and give you a well-rounded learning experience.  You will be able to use private lessons to fine-tune and help retain what you have learned in group class.

Social Dance Parties
Join us for our weekly Saturday Dance Parties from 8-10PM
at Blue Moon Dancesport! The lights get turned down, the music gets turned up, and soft drinks and light appetizers are served. We offer a spacious, floating dance floor, a variety of popular dance music, and plenty of good times! While most people are lucky to go dancing once or twice a year - you' will get to go as often as you like. Show off your skills while meeting new people, or come practice the moves you learned in class.

Fundamental, Intermediate to Advanced Level Ballroom Programs
 

The Ballroom Syllabus Program
 

For dancers who wish to advance and improve their styling and dancing proficiency.  Fundamental, Pre-Bronze, Bronze, Silver, Gold level classes taught to ISTD Standard.

Blue Moon Dancesport offers a variety of ballroom syllabus programs for dancers who have completed our beginner level courses and wish to improve their styling and dancing proficiency in both American and International-Style Ballroom & Latin dances. Classes taught according to DVIDA and ISTD standards. Check below for class level descriptions.


Fundamental Ballroom Program
The Fundamental Ballroom Program is for dancers who are comfortable with all dances learned in the Intro to Ballroom course. Classes are designed to expand upon the basics with new dance steps, different directional patterns, and enable students to maneuver around the dance floor comfortably with their partner.


Pre-Bronze Level

The Pre-Bronze Level Program is geared towards acquiring freer movement around the dance floor while expanding variety, technique and footwork. Pre-Bronze dancers also begin to develop unique dance characteristics in the form of styling. This dance program is very popular with those wanting to get on the dance floor quickly.


Bronze Level

The Bronze Program is designed for the couple who is ready to expand upon the basics of International Style Ballroom Dance.  By this time, you should feel comfortable dancing with your partner.  In this program, you will develop timing, posture, and a higher level of proficiency in lead and follow techniques.  Routines that will have you flowing around the dance floor will also be learned.  The Bronze Program is a favorite to all and is a great confidence builder!


Silver Level

The Silver Level Program will begin working with continuity style dance.  Continuity of movements is what makes a couple glide across the dance floor with many natural directional changes.  In this program, focus will be placed on styling, technique, balance and control.  At this point, students should have an understanding of proper footwork and posture to maneuver around the floor comfortably with their partner.


Gold Level
The Gold Level Program is for the highly dedicated couple who wishes to excel at Ballroom dancing.  Choreography, styling, technique, poise and showmanship are refined in this standard.  Gold Dancers have the confidence that comes with a complete and thorough knowledge of all International Style Ballroom dances.  There is a lot of work involved in this program, but you will truly be regarded as an outstanding dancer.
