Ballroom Dancing Lessons for teens?

Hi I was wondering if you could recommend any dance studios that offer ballroom dancing. A friend and I would like to take some lessons not this summer but during the school year we are 17. I was wondering about places in the Manhattan Area. If you know any it would great thanks in advance!!

Check out www.steppingoutstudios.com. Dancers are mostly adults, but I have seen some younger people there who usually come with their parents during the summer. This is the friendliest studio on the East Coast with some of the best instructors in the world. Located right in Manhattan. It offers classes in both International style and social dance which you may find interesting.

I made a mistake in telling this girl I like I'd attend Ballroom Dancing lessons tonight too. How can I not go?

This question is semi-emergency-ish:

Anyway, there's this one girl in one of my college classes whom I've developed a really good relationship with. I like her a lot, she's really interesting and we have a ton of things in common. This morning, she mentioned she was going to the first Ballroom Dancing lessons, and I (stupidly) said I'd be there, too.

Not only do I not have ANY clue how to dance, I seriously don't want to go.
We're not even dating or anything like that, so she'll be okay if I don't go to it tonight, right?

Just tell her you forgot that you have two left feet.
Be honest with her. If you are friends she should take it pretty well. After all, she was going to go before you said you would too so you wont be leaving her to go "stag".

For group and private ballroom dance lessons, what are the average prices?

At the dance studio I go to, it’s $80 for a one hour private lesson. For group lessons, it’s $15 for two hours.

I find those a bit expensive, but my parents are telling me that it costs more elsewhere. What do you guys think? Are those the average prices for ballroom dance lessons? If not, then what is?

That's average!

Where is the best place to take ballroom dancing in Seattle?

I'm planning to take ballroom dancing lessons with a partner in the Seattle area (I actually live in Issaquah, about 30 minutes east of Seattle), but we're not sure where to start. We're both complete beginners, and we're looking for something with a little variety–mostly in the smooth dance category: waltz, tango, foxtrot, etc. We'd also like to keep it under a budget of about 60 dollars, ideally 10-12 per lesson. Can anyone help?

You can try looking it up on yahoo but I would suggest calling each studio you consider and maybe taking a few group classes before committing to a studio. Regardless of what other may say about a studio, everyone learns in different ways so you should make sure it is the right place for you. Make sure the people are nice and that it is a place that allows you to have fun- you don't want to wind up somewhere overly competitive or in a frustrating situation. I live in new jersey but around here one private lesson is around 60 so you may have trouble with your budget but group classes are 15 so you may want to start with those. I'd suggest doing your research well before signing up for lessons. Ballroom dancing is a lot of fun. I hope you enjoy it and good luck!

Looking for ballroom dancing lessons? Easy ten points!?

Does anyone know of a studio/coach to teach ballroom dancing? Im thirteen and would really like to start(maybe compete someday?) Oh and any tips you can give me to, Thanks a lot!
sorry guys! I forgot to say, I live in rockford IL

you need to go to google.com. then you need to enter your city, and your state and add ballroom dance lessons. This will give you a huge list of people in your specific area that teach ball room dancing. and since you are asking questions online, im sure you dont need your parents permission to go to google.com but i would get it any.
