Everybody’s on the floor.

The waltz is an elegant ballroom dance with origins dating back to 18th century Europe. It’s characterized by its smooth, flowing movements and a distinctive 3/4 time signature, where dancers move in a one-two-three rhythm. It’s a popular choice for weddings and social dancing because of its timeless beauty and ease of learning for beginners. This is one dance you should have in your repertoire, and in May you will have the opportunity to learn the waltz from our resident professional instructors Dale and Ann Pizzitola. Beginner classes are held on Sundays from 3 to 4 p.m. and Tuesdays from 5 to 6 p.m. in the MountainView ballroom. Intermediate classes are held on Sundays from 4 to 5 p.m. and Tuesdays from 6 to 7 p.m., also in the MountainView ballroom. Both the Beginner and Intermediate classes will start on Sunday, May 4, and registration is required. Sign up on our website sbballroomdance.com or send an email to countmein@sbballroomdancecom. Classes are free for members, and a non-member may attend one free class to make sure it’s a fit before joining.
