Couples, Fill Your Summer with FUN and Dance!

Is summer stressing you out? The kids are out of school and home all day. It is hot as heck outside and outdoor activities are just not the same. You need an escape, something just for you! You and your sweetie should carve out some alone time and take dance lessons. Not only is it an excellent indoor activity for these hot months, but you can relieve stress and take a load off while enjoying adult time with your partner!

We have many options for busy parents here at Dance FX Studios in Mesa, AZ. Our couples’ group dance classes are a great way to learn the basics in Country Two Step, Salsa, Country Swing, and Jitterbug Swing. Each dance has its own class which meets once a week for four weeks. These classes are progressive in the way that our experienced Swango Styles instructors will build on what you have learned each week, adding new moves and combinations every class. Even if it’s only for one night a week, dance classes for two are a great way to get some alone time with other adults in a fun, relaxing environment. You can spend time with each other and improve your communication skills and even add some romance. What’s not to love about all that??

Besides group classes, we also offer private dance lessons. We have an excellent staff of instructors who personalize each and every lesson for every student, depending on their goals and learning style. If you just want to let loose and relax while taking a break from the kids, your instructor will be sure to make that a goal of your program. If more romance and strengthening your bond with each other is what you need, then your instructor can create an environment for that to happen! Private dance lessons are the best way to learn as quickly and efficiently as possible, while reaping the maximum benefits of learning to dance.

Does taking time for yourself and learning to dance sound like just what you need this summer? Take a break from the heat and the kids and join in on the fun happening at Dance FX Studios! If group classes seem like they would fit perfectly into your busy life, register you and your partner for any of our 4 week progressive classes for just $75 today. The next round of 4 week classes begin July 7^{th, 2014.}   Classes will include Country Two Step on Mondays, Salsa on Tuesdays, Country Swing on Wednesdays, and Jitterbug Swing on Thursdays.
