Dance Parties

Jive is an energetic, upbeat dance style characterized by knee lifts. East Coast Swing patterns work well with Jive.  Susan Schmidt says she likes Jive because it is done to "happy" music. All levels of dancers will enjoy this class.  Light snacks can be enjoyed the lobby and parking is steps from the door. When in doubt -- Dance!
