Ballroom is back at GWC!

On Thursdays from 6:30–8:25 p.m., adjoining studios will be filled with cha-cha, waltz, foxtrot, salsa, and swing—with something for everyone, whether you’re stepping onto the dance floor for the first time or ready to glide like a pro.

No partner? No problem. All levels are welcome!
Even better? Each course is just 1 unit ($46)—that’s 15 lessons for about $3 per lesson. Now that’s a deal that really moves you.

Choose your level:
• DANCE G112 or DANCE G113 – Introductory & Beginning Ballroom with Nicole Rudder
• DANCE G212 or DANCE G213 – Intermediate & Advanced Ballroom with Hunter Doughty
It’s lively, it’s social, and it’s the most fun you can have on a Thursday night.
