Introductory Novice Classes for November

Introductory classes are specifically designed for those who have never danced ballroom or those looking for a refresher on the basics of ballroom dance. In November, the SaddleBrooke Ballroom Dance Club (SBDC) Introductory classes will be Intro to Swing. Featuring exciting music with a lively beat, swing dancing is one of the most popular and flexible dance styles.

November’s Introductory Classes will be taught by our resident professional instructors, Ann and Dale Pizzitola. Known for their teaching method that makes dancing easy to learn, they are extremely patient and know how to encourage progress. Introductory Classes give dancers a balanced foundation combining elegance and romantic expression in a fun, supportive environment. Classes will be held on Wednesday, November 4 and Wednesday, November 11, as well as a Review Session on Wednesday, November 18, all sessions at 5:30 p.m. in the Mariposa Room at DesertView.

Introductory classes are FREE for Club members. To register for the above classes, email countmein@sbballroomdance.com with your name and the classes you wish to attend. Schedules can change, so be sure to register so you have the most up-to-date information on time and location.
