From the timeless box step of the Foxtrot to the cat like steps of the Tango, Championship Dancer and popular Arts Council dance instructor, Amanda Showell, offers a review of the most popular ballroom dances. This award winning dancer instructs students of all levels in all ballroom dances, and has gained a faithful and growing following in Queen Anne’s and Talbot Counties.

Three classic dances, Tango, Waltz and Foxtrot are showcased in Smooth Review beginning October 13 at 7pm. On the same night at 8 pm a more intricate knowledge of the Tango is offered. Singles and couples are welcome to these four-week courses. The deadline for registration is October 6, and the class fee is $50 for members of the Queen Anne’s County Arts Council, or $55 for non members.
Students who sign up for both classes qualify for a discount rate.
