CHA CHA DANCE

Our Cha Cha Dance Lessons In Toronto teach this social (partner) dance which originally came from Cuba and was named for the sound of a dancer’s feet on the floor as they make the steps. Cha Cha is often danced in a relaxed style as a social dance, but is also one of the 5 Standard Latin dances in the International style of dance competitions. It was originally danced to authentic Cuban music, but many people nowadays prefer using Latin Pop or Latin Rock music. There are also quite a few good remixes of popular non-latin songs which have been adapted to a Cha-Cha beat.

RUMBA DANCE

Our Rumba Dance Lessons in Toronto will teach you this beautiful style which originated on the US East Coast in the 1930s and is a very romantic and elegant dance. At the same time sexy and refined, its personality tends to be smooth and flowing rather than the high energy passion of Tango. However advanced Rumba dancers will often add a few rapid, yet precise moves into their routines to spice things up with some contrast and depth.

WALTZ DANCE

Our Waltz Dance Lessons in Toronto will teach you this style known by many as the quintessential ballroom dance of fairy tales and Disney princesses. A graceful, gliding dance that is most at home in a marble-columned grand ballroom. Yet it came from far humbler origins in the mid 1700s where its first versions were danced by Bavarian peasants. As its popularity spread, it began to replace the minuet among noblemen and noblewomen, evolving into the refined dance of tuxedos and large flowing dresses we know today.
