Dance Class
“Top couple too; with a good stiff piece of work cut out for them; three or four and twenty pair of partners; people who were not to be trifled with; people who would dance, and had no notion of walking.” -- Dance at the Fezziwigs, A Christmas Carol
Dance Class: The dance lesson class will immediately follow check-in, from 10 am to noon on Saturday. During the class, the dance teacher will instruct participants on some of the more complicated dances. Regular street clothes are suitable for this class.
Even if you have attended the ball and the class in previous years, this class is required for participation in the ball, as there are several complicated dance steps that we all, new and old, need to learn and practice together.
For extra practice in period dances, check with local dance teachers who may be conducting classes with others preparing for the ball. We are familiar with several dance teachers in the Front Range; if you would like contact information for a dance teacher please email us at [email protected]
