 The Balboa Park Dancers dance weekly on Friday and Sunday at the historic Balboa Park Club in Balboa Park. We provide a safe, pleasant environment for improving your dancing skills.
Couples and singles are welcome. Lower-heeled, closed-toe and closed-heel shoes are recommended for dancing. For more tips, check our Ballroom Etiquette page.
Each night we offer 3 levels of instruction, beginning, intermediate, and advanced, in one smooth and one rhythm style changing dances monthly. During the year we cover most ballroom dances: Foxtrot, Waltz, Tango, Quickstep, Rumba, Cha-cha, Hustle, Viennese Waltz, Bolero, Salsa and Swing. Our classes generally follow the USISTD Syllabus.
The second Friday of each month is usually a party night of social dancing and mixers with only one special lesson from our DJ during the evening. Admission for members is free and the usual $4 fee for non-members. Occasionally a party night may include live music. Check the schedule to see where and when we are dancing.
Dancers are encouraged to change partners during class and during general dancing sessions. Trade-in those 2 left feet! Have fun, get some exercise, and make new friends.
