Welcome! I'm Julie, your hostess and primary instructor. Some classes have started up live, but I am continuing with virtual dance classes as well. A bunch of changes are happening, so do scroll through to see if there is somewhere you want to dance with me.
PARKING LOT DANCES
Our outdoor dances are starting up again (weather permitting). the first two are scheduled for June 18 and July 16, 5-7 pm. Dances are held in the parking lot across from 100 Winthrop Street, on the corner of Chester St,. Medford. We do mostly easy line dances, with quick walk-throughs. NEW this year: We will have a space designated for partner dancing (West Coast & East Coast swing, cha cha, Nightclub two step).

From the crowds at First Night Boston to an intimate country wedding, in nightclubs and offices, at Boston black tie fund raisers and outdoor picnics, on college campuses and Alzheimers residences, people all around Boston have been enjoying my lessons.
Even better, they have been getting up and dancing!
Dancing knows no barriers: young and old, men and women, athletes and couch potatoes, singles and couples, all can participate.You can do it in heels or wingtips, runners or boots; you can wear pants or a dress, suits or sweats. Dancing is easy, and everyone can enjoy it. Everyone--even the watchers--will leave with a smile.
