In many partner dances, the lead initiates the moves, and the follow responds. In the olden days, the man would be the lead and the woman would be the follow. At Century Ballroom, we don’t feel constricted by these roles, and you will see women leading and men following (many dancers do both).
No. We work to keep an equal number of leads and follows in our classes so that you will have someone to dance with. We rotate partners throughout class so you will have a chance to dance with everyone.
Begin by seeing if there is a “Couples Only” class offered because we don’t rotate in those classes. If there isn’t a couples-only class, then you may stay with your partner. (The instructors agree it does speed up the learning process if you dance with different people, and if you are lucky enough to have someone to practice with.)
In order to keep classes as balanced as possible, we sometimes have to restrict a particular role. Definitely get on the waitlist, though, as we are able to let people in as others register.
Wear comfortable clothing and keep in mind that it does get warm in class.
Wear shoes that are comfortable and stay securely on your feet. A leather or a suede sole is ideal so you can easily spin.
As a courtesy to those around you, please refrain from wearing fragrances and perfumes.

Can I pay per class?
You may drop in to any of our classes if you have already taken the class, and if there is room for you in the class that day. Couples may drop in if they have not taken the class before provided they don’t rotate partners. We do not recommend dropping in to a class after week two. Please check in with the instructors upon arrival. Drop-ins are $25 for 60-minute classes.
