Dance Classes

Here is some additional information for you new dancers.

Our New Beginner class at the Lenexa Old Town Activity Center was new on March 6, 2025. It starts at 2:45 on Thursdays. Basic steps are taught at an absolute beginner level.
Our first Beginner class began in February 2023 so they have moved to the next level called Improver. This class starts at 1:30 on Thursdays.
You should arrive early to check in at the door so you will be on time to begin your class. You will be given a card to bring to class. Put it in the blue bucket on the table.
Bring a bottle of water with a lid to class and some ankle socks to cover the front of your shoes for easy turning.
At the beginning of each month we will learn new or review dances all month. Additional dances will be added as time permits.
To review dances, you can go to Copperknob.co.uk to search for specific dances that you have learned. Just type the title of the dance in the Key Word section.
