I am an advent ballroom dance. I have been dancing for over 6 years and competing for 5 years. I compete in both pro/am and amateur competitions with my most recent emphasis being in amateur competitions. I have over 5 years experience in competing at most of the amateur competitions within the Northeast region of the county. I have also competed at the USA Dance (formerly USABDA) National Amateur Dance Sport Competitions during the past 4 years. I compete in both Rhythm and Standard at the Novice, Pre-Champ and Championship level. My previous partner and I did Open Rhythm and Open Standard routines. We had recently placed first in SRII Rhythm Pre-Champ and second in the SRI Rhythm Pre-Champ events at the 2006 USA Dance National competitions in San Jose, CA. I spend approximately 2 hours at the studio 6 days a week, either practicing and/or taking lessons. I take my lessons in Latham, New York.

I'm nearing the end of my first year of regular dance lessons. I'm learning waltz, tango, fox trot, cha-cha, and WCS. Soon to start on V-Waltz. I do not have a regular dance partner and I think having a regular partner would help my progress. I'm seeking a dance partner of similar age and dance experience (or someone who is willing to tolerate an earnest beginner).

Trained in Ballet & Contemporary originally, I have been working with Ballroom & Lindy Hop for 16 years. I have been focused on Argentine Tango for the last 3 years very deeply, I am interested in exploring the connection between Tango and Contact Impovisation. I make dance for camera work, regular performances for events & festivals. I am also a keen social dancer and enjoy this very much, I am next hoping to go to Turino Tango Festival as thinking of moving to Italy.

I have recently started learning to lead, so although I dance mostly as a follower, I am mainly here to seek out a follower with whom to practice as a leader. Learning to lead is fun, and I believe it has the added benefit of making me a better follower. Since I am still a "beginner" as a leader, I would be a good partner for a a beginner lady - or for a man who wants to learn to follow. But unlike most beginner dancers, I already have a solid frame, a firm-yet-elastic connection, lightness on my feet, a precise grasp of musical timing, and proficiency in basic technique.
Dances I am best at leading are: American Smooth waltz, foxtrot, and Viennese waltz; International Latin paso doble; and social dances merengue and polka. But I would like to learn to lead other dances. If we practice together for a bit and find that we are having fun, get along, and learn well together, we could even try performing in a showcase. I have already performed in one showcase as a leader, dancing paso doble with a female friend, and we had a blast.
Regarding my proficiency and experience levels: The largest percentage of my training is in International Standard (as a follower - at open gold level in waltz and foxtrot, and at gold level in the rest), but I am familiar with all styles of ballroom dance: standard, latin, rhythm, smooth, as well as various styles of swing and other social dances. If you want to me to estimate my proficiency level (as a leader or as a follower) for a particular dance, just ask - or better yet - meet me on the social dance floor. I go out social dancing 3-4 times per month, so it's not hard to meet up with me in a social dance setting.

I would like to have a dance partner for dancing at social clubs and at afternoon tea dances etc.. Most social venues do a mix of ballroom and sequence dancing; I am quite comfortable with social club dancing. Alternatively, I would like to learn Jive, or Salsa, or Argentine Tango. I have dabbled in those styles, but it's pretty difficult to learn dances like jive, without a partner.

Six years of experience mostly American style ballroom. Very active social dancer. Dance instructor helper and ringer. Participant in various showcases as per my instructor request. Regarded as a very good dancer. I practice by myself at least 5 days a week not less that 30 minutes. Love music, and depending on it, can be very expressive. I take at least 6 lessons of different dances per week.

Love dancing and haven't kept up with it or this site like I've wanted to. I still want to try new styles of dance and check out great places to dance in and around Chicago. Now several years from when I first started here, I can say I have met some fun people and would like to try the site again. I started a long while back and it seems people aren't really on this site like before.
I would love to dance in competitions if possible (one day). I have some formal dance experience (2 years on dance team, 4/5 college dance classes <jazz/modern/a bit of ballet>, and one summer of ballroom lessons) and a good amount of club dancing & Zumba experience. It's been a while, but I may take lessons again when I can make the time.
I love to dance salsa, merengue, bachata, cumbias, NorteƱas and other regional Mexican dances (think quebraditas). I would love to dance jive and tango, and would LOVE to be able to flip around in swing/lindy. I'm currently working out and training to learn to run. I imagine once I do start incorporating dance again, the weight I want to lose will come off more quickly. Dancing is something I really want to get back into. I've still got the moves, and just need to get out more!

I'm a professional dance sport coach..competitor dancer, adjudicator, choreographer...Dress designer..and many more.
I'm waiting for the amateur, beginner or champion level, and professional man for the dance competitions / International ST and LA dances at first, but I'm dancing and teaching the American Ballroom as well.
I'm European - from Philadelphia , now from Richmond VA as well,- and I know the clean English style, but my favorite is the newest Italian method can dance this and I can teach this.
