Ballroom Dance Program

Beginners should start by enrolling in this introductory ballroom group class. It is a comfortable and supportive class with excellent professional instruction. This class is designed for individuals with little to no prior dance experience. Students are taught the basic steps and turns in Foxtrot, Waltz, Tango, Swing, Jitterbug, Cha Cha, Rumba, Salsa and Merengue. Lead and follow techniques are introduced as well as rhythm and timing to keep the learning experience interesting. After completion of the Intro to Ballroom class, students move to syllabus courses.

The Pre-Bronze Program

The Pre-Bronze 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.

The Full Bronze Program

The Full 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!

The Silver Program

The Silver 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.

The Gold Program

The Gold 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.

Getting started is easy. The first step is to schedule an introductory lesson with one of our trained instructors. During that lesson, your instructor will determine your current level and recommend an appropriate course for you to continue.

Customer Testimonials

"Martin's teaching style is sincere, fun and filled with excellent dance instruction. He has obviously spent many years training, competing, and teaching -- and it shows as he thoughtfully works with his students to show them not only how to dance ballroom, but how dancing can be a life-long form of entertainment and enjoyment. He and his instructors provide honest ballroom dance education. We highly recommend Blue Moon Dancesport to anyone who wants to learn to dance well."

- L & D Nichols

"Martin teaches the elegant style of ballroom dancing similar to what is featured on Dancing with the Stars. He is a highly skilled ballroom dancer with a teaching style that quickly puts his students at ease to help them remember what they have learned from week to week. Unlike some of the places we've gone to that just demonstrate generic dance steps for drop-in folks, Martin's ballroom lessons are quality instruction. He also has a wonderful community of dancers that come to his studio, so we are definitely planning to continue at Blue Moon for a long time to come. It's been great for us."

"We chose Martin and Blue Moon Dancesport because we wanted authenticity and the best! Martin is wonderful, his instruction is clear, his easy way of being creates a fun learning experience. We absolutely love the location of the studio and plan on continuing on to other programs. Ballroom dancing (we are learning) is more than just the moves. It's also about the energy and flow of the dance partners and we are enjoying the process very much. Thanks!"

- C & R Trotter

"My husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed our ballroom dance lessons with Martin at Blue Moon Dancesport! Martin is wonderful, knowledgeable, patient, and a funny teacher and we're so glad that our next door neighbors told us about him and Blue Moon Dancesport! The studio is very nice and has a great big dance floor. The location is ideal, as it's right off the 30 bypass in Exton - right next to Rino's Restaurant. We look forward to attending the Saturday night dance parties so that we can practice what we've learned on Friday nights. Our next door neighbors attend the Saturday Night Dance Parties on a regular basis and rave about how fun they are. We also definitely plan to take the next level of dance lessons after we complete our beginner session. We highly recommend Blue Moon Dancesport!"

- T & J Liberi

"We have been taking dance lessons with Martin for 10 years. It has been a lot of fun and also good exercise! We hope we are able to continue with Martin for at least another 10 years longer. The people that attend the lessons and the dance parties are great to meet and get to know. Blue Moon has been the source of many good times and friendships. We feel that Martin and Blue Moon are the best by far!"

Tuition for Group Classes: Tuition is due one week prior to the first class of each session. Tuition payments are non-refundable or transferable and there are no refunds for withdrawal or reductions for missed classes. If a student is to miss a class, the student must call ahead or inform their instructor in person prior to their absence if they would like to take a make-up class. Make-ups must be taken before the end of the current class session, and taken either one week prior or one week after the missed class, or they will be lost. Please consult the instructor for a recommendation on any make-up lessons. Classes are not transferrable.

Tuition for Private Lessons: Private Lessons are scheduled by appointment and must be paid for in advance before they will be booked with an instructor. Once booked, we ask for a minimum of 48 hour notice in order to reschedule a lesson and avoid full charge for that lesson. This required cancellation notice is so the studio has ample time to rebook the timeslot. No refunds or exchanges on private lessons.
