Group Classes

Learning the basics, gaining confidence, and having fun!

Group classes are the perfect introduction into ballroom dancing. Gain confidence and grace and never be afraid of the dance floor again! Each class we introduce a new dance to give you a taste of what ballroom has to offer in a fun, relaxed and social environment.

Classes are currently offered at two locations in North Vancouver.  Each package includes 3 or 4 classes and runs once a week.  No previous dance experience necessary and it’s great for all ages.  Couples and singles are welcome. Late registration to any of the sessions are accepted as we do a new dance each class. Can’t commit to a full 4 classes? Drop-ins are welcome as well!

Intermediate Group Classes At Parkgate! 

This program is designed for people who have a grasp of the basic movements taught in the beginner class and want to further their skills by learning new steps and technique.  We will be going more in depth into each dance by doing two classes each per dance.  Drop-ins are always welcome, but it is recommended to attend both classes per style as the material will build on the previous class.

  • My husband and I are attending David’s beginner dance classes in the North Shore. It is our first time taking dance lessons and we are greatly enjoying them! David is a great teacher!!! He explains the dance steps clearly, several times, and offers tips on how to achieve proper posture and rhythm, on how to lead and follow, etc.  We’ve come a long way, very quickly. =)  We will continue attending David’s classes, and highly recommend anyone to give them a try, it’s lots of fun!

  • I took the beginner ballroom dancing lessons with David in North Vancouver, the classes were awesome. I always felt I was missing something in the past when I danced. David has he ability to break down the steps and make them easy to understand. He also takes the time to make sure his students have the correct posture for all the dances.

    I would not hesitate to recommend David as an instructor for beginners or more experienced dancers.

  • Sonia and I have had the great pleasure of experiencing some group dance lessons for beginners with David instructing us. This is a very fun taste of a number of ballroom dances that we would recommend attending Davids classes to anyone. Great music with the huge added benefit of a physical, mental and emotional workout. We’ll be taking more lessons and I think we are going to have to invite our friends to join us.
    Thanks David

  • My fiancé and I took 8 group lessons with David this spring and he was fantastic! We are both quite uncoordinated and I left self conscious with my dancing abilities. David’s is a extremely patient, knowledgeable, helpful and easy going teacher who makes dancing fun and enjoyable. I highly recommend him to anyone and we hope to take some more private lessons with him soon. Thank you David!

    Should I take private or group lessons?

    If you just want a basic introduction to ballroom dancing and want to do it socially with friends, a group class would be most appropriate for you. If you are more driven and detail-oriented with your approach to dancing, then private lessons would be more suitable…
