Our club celebrated our Fifth Anniversary in the Fall of 2009. Our membership is comprised with people whose experience ranges from people who have been dancing a year or less through dancers with experience thru Advanced and various Challenge levels. We dance to floor level (a mixture of Mainstream and Plus, depending on the status of the current or most recent class), with Advanced or C-1 tips, depending on the floor level. Please visit again to see exciting additions to our website. See "About Us" for more history...
