Description

Ballroom Time presents a multi-level Ballroom Dance Workshop in the Ballroom Back Room on Saturday afternoon, September 19, 2026 from 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm followed by one hour of instructor-led dancing, practice, and open dancing until 5:30 as the music plays. This multi-level Workshop focuses on Latin dances as danced at our recurring Sunday afternoon events. It is designed with beginner to intermediate-level dancers in mind, covering lead and follow techniques along with basic steps and figures that can be used across multiple dance styles.

No partner required to attend. We do facilitate rotation of partners during the workshop. This is always optional for those who dance with a preferred partner. This workshop focused on Latin dances complements our planned October 31 workshop focused on Standard dances that move abound the ballroom in a line of dance. Students are encouraged to take both.

The Workshop will be taught by Ballroom Time staff Tom Hall and Min Zhang who have a combined total of over 50 years of ballroom dance experience.

2:30 - 3:30 pm: The "Break-on-2" family of dances: Mambo, Rumba, Cha-cha, and Bolero.

3:30 - 4:30 pm: The "Chasée" family of dances: Bachata and Merengue.

4:30 - 5:30 pm: Practica session led by our instructors. As the music plays, students may line dance solo or dance as couples.
