People Love Dancing at Ballroom East

I've been a dancer at Ballroom East since 2008. I started as a complete beginner, but through the dedicated and expert coaching of Linda Jackson and Charles Jones, I went on to compete at the highest levels in the sport. I have found so much joy and fulfillment in my 17 years as a dancer at Ballroom East, and it is all thanks to the environment of learning, passion and fun that Linda and Charles have generated. Whether you're someone who wants to try ballroom dancing for the first time, socialize and dance for fun, or you're looking to refine your skills for competition, I can think of no better place to do it. Whatever ballroom dance experience you're looking for, you'll find it here.
