Candela Dance Studio

Candela Dance Studio A place for West Coast Swing, Salsa & other styles of dance and fitness in Grants Pass. Life is sweeter when you dance ~ come try it and make new friends!

We strive to create a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere for dancers of all ages, shapes and sizes. Candela Dance Studio is the result of a vision that began over a Thai lunch: To have a studio in Grants Pass specifically focused on partner dancing, and to spread the joy of dance through Salsa, West Coast Swing and more! It was made possible by community support. We're open to people of all ages, siz

es and backgrounds who love dancing, or who are simply curious to try it. The idea is to create a special, comfortable and welcoming place where the local dance community can grow and thrive. Come dance with us!

Today was a beautiful Celebration of Life for our dear Sue Ames, organized by her loving family. There were reunions, tears, laughter, and many memories shared. It was a day of love and connection ~ a fitting tribute to someone who brought kindness and humor to every room she entered. It is so clear that Sue is very deeply loved by many people. 💕 The last photo is a powerful one: Jerry and Sue were married for 675 months and one day ~ he never stopped looking at her with the same expression captured in that photo from their wedding day. 🥰

Today, we honor our amazing Sue 💕All are welcome to this Celebration of Life hosted by her family.

Tonight was something NEW and totally different at Candela: The kickoff of Kat Greene’s 3rd Friday Ceilidh!

We had so much fun! Kat is a great teacher, and the live music was delightful 🎶 We had to keep the original music for this reel 🎻

So much laughter, so much joy ✨ Thank you, Kat! 💕

WHAT IS CELIDH?
Ceilidh (pronounced kay-lee) is a traditional Scottish or Irish social gathering featuring lively folk music and group dancing. Ceilidh dances follow specific patterns and are led by a “caller” that walk participants through the moves. The dances are performed to traditional jigs and reels played by a live band.

Kat will host the Ceilidh on the THIRD Friday of each month from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.!

IS THERE A LESSON?
Yes! Kat teaches you how to dance ~ most of us had never tried this before tonight!

WHAT IS THE COST?
$20
If you have not yet used the 2 “free trial classes” that we now offer with our new software, you can try it for FREE!
Candela members always free!

IS THERE LIVE MUSIC?
Yes! Kat, whom you may know as a Hula instructor, also plays in a Celtic band! You will be able to dance to their live music 🙂

~ QUESTION FOR PARENTS OF TEENS ~
Hello from Candela! We have a question for you: We're launching a "West Coast Swing for Teens" class in September and are looking for the best way to get the word out. We created the flier in English & Spanish for submission to District 7 before we realized they only distribute fliers for nonprofits. We are not a nonprofit, but we'd love to let families know about this class!
Any ideas?
