PART OF SOMETHING BIGGER THAN ONE CLASS
The group classes offered through BallroomDanceATL follow a structured format developed and shared within the Ballroom Dance Community—a network of programs hosted in churches and venues across the region.
What does that mean for you?
- Consistency from class to class – The material and progression are aligned, so you can step into classes at other locations and feel comfortable.
- Flexibility in your schedule – If you miss a series or want more practice, you have options beyond just one location.
- A larger social circle – When you attend dances and events within the Ballroom Dance Community, you’ll meet others who have learned in a similar way—making it easier to connect and enjoy the experience.
This structured approach is part of the Ballroom Dance Community, a network dedicated to making partnership dancing accessible, social, and enjoyable.
You’re not just taking a class—you’re stepping into a community.
You don’t have to move on until you’re ready.
GET BETTER—WITHOUT RUSHING
Students are encouraged to repeat Ballroom 1, 2, and 3 to reinforce the fundamentals and build real confidence.
Returning students may retake these levels at 50% off, making it easy to improve at your own pace.
A STRONGER CLASS FOR EVERYONE
With both new and returning dancers in each class, the environment stays supportive, social, and more enjoyable for all.
NO RUSH. JUST PROGRESS.

Everyone seems to want to get thru the Ballroom Series as quick as possible. As an experienced dancer I’ve always benefited from taking those classes again to gain more insight into the basics.

Single Dance Series
Go deeper. Get better. One dance at a time.
Our Single Dance Series focuses on one dance over several weeks—giving you the time to truly understand it, not just get through it.
New to dancing?
We recommend starting with our Ballroom Series to build your foundation first.
Already taken this dance before?
Perfect. This is where dancers grow. You don’t “graduate” from this level—you revisit, refine, and improve each time.
What to expect:
- A mix of newer and experienced dancers
- Layered instruction so everyone gets what they need
- The freedom to focus on your level and build over time
- Each series strengthens your overall dancing—because the skills you learn carry into every dance you do.
