Our Courses

We have a full range of classes in Traditional Ballroom Dancing, Modern Latin American, and the good old Popular Sequence Dancing.

Venue: All classes held at Paparoa Street School, 120 Paparoa Street, Papanui, Christchurch.
Cost: The course is $12.50 per session, with 4 sessions per week: Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday early, and Sunday evening sessions.
