I attempted to "boost" the previous post to a wider community and the "ad" was rejected because it was promoting illegal services... bizarre!!! I would never have guessed that dance lessons promoting deeper connections between partners would be in violation of the policies, but things are pretty crazy these days.

I am guessing that their bots don't like the "T" word so I will try spreading the word using different language as their response suggests. Good to know I guess... Namaste

Ta**ra Dance
Romance, Connection & Passion

The Summer Lesson Series is HERE... THIS THURSDAY!!!

Learn to dance much more..
Confidently, Romantically, Sensually
Connect Deeply, Playfully, Skillfully

TA**RA DANCE is NOT just about learning patterns and steps for a particular dance style as most dance instruction is offered.

TA**RA DANCE is about a much deeper connection between you and your partner... about HOW to confidently use your body naturally to move together as one with your partner (dance skills)... AND about HOW to be fully present emotionally, romantically, lovingly, sensuously, passionately with your partner (romance skills). These skills can be applied to any dance style you enjoy!

These classes are for beginning and experienced dancers who want to learn how to look and feel FABULOUS dancing with a partner.

Each evening will be split into three classes:
7:00 PARTNER SKILLS focusing on Essential Dance Partnering Skills which will help you move confidently with your partner!
7:45 TA**RA DANCE focusing on making your dancing romantic, intimate & passionate
8:30 PRACTICE PARTY where you can practice what you learned, enjoy our community & have questions answered


You may come to one or all as your schedule permits.

Please bring a partner if possible. Singles are welcome, but there is no guarantee we will have gender balance. You can either rotate partners or stay with your partner.

No dance experience is required, only an open mind and heart.

SPACE IS LIMITED, SO SIGNUP EARLY!
