I began dancing at a local studio on the Northwest Side of Chicago in mid-July 2021. On less than four months' notice, I was invited by the owners to perform in their annual non-competitive exhibition gala in early-December. Most dancers at the studio are long-time amateurs and usually practice 7-8 months in choreographed routines. I had a busy personal schedule, but was enthusiastic and performed a mix of bronze and silver steps in the American Rumba. My routine went well.

I'm 57 and athletic. To save time at work, I routinely skip the elevator and run up and down multiple flights of stairs with heavy boxes during the day so I can better meet the demands of my job. In "student versus staff" athletic events, I am older than most of the staff participants by well over 20 years. I have no age preferences (younger or older) regarding women whom I am open to having as a partner. I simply want a woman who is athletic, easygoing, and is dancing for the joy and passion of it.

Private lessons at the studio I attend are among the lowest in the city and the instructors have taken private lessons from some of the world’s best dancers. The studio has very low turnover and a majority of the dancers are everyday people with busy lives who have, nonetheless, stayed 10 years or more. Everyone is very supportive and cheers on each dancer. At studio parties, married couples and singles know each other well and regularly switch partners. As a newcomer, I was welcomed with open arms. Everyone is friendly and welcoming, offering abundant praise at even my smallest dance step "triumphs". There are no cliques. The owners have done it strictly for the passion and joy of dancing. The gala is one way they show appreciation for their dancers - not to promote their studio (The audience is private.) - but simply to thank their dancers.

I'm 19 years old and 181 cm tall.I've been dancing for 10 years. I moved to Frankfurt am Main,Germany to study here, so now I'm looking for a highly motivated Latin or 10 Dance partner to train a lot and to reach as best results as possible on the international level. I have A in both Latin and Standard. Contact me if interested :)

I love to dance and open to most styles but not a fan of new vogue. Rock n roll is my favourite and I would say I was an energetic dancer and have fun

I'm new to ballroom dancing, but have fallen in love with it since I started. I dance every day and am dedicated to bettering myself and my technique. I want to dance competitively and socially. I practice Monday-Friday at with a private instructor, do group lessons on Monday and Fridays and go to socials on Friday nights. Each Saturday I attend leading classes as well.

Ballroom and Latin dance

I am an engineer by day, a filmmaker by night, and a dancer when I can get away with it

I've been dancing since I was in elementary school. My husband was a dancer and he passed away. I want to get back on the dance floor.

Salsa, bachata, kizomba. Would like to get better for non-competitive purposes. Dancing is a passion. It is fun and I want to get better at it.

I started dancing socially in college but danced competitively my senior year of college. Currently, I am dancing Pro/Am in American Smooth and working towards adding in Standard. My goals include working toward dancing and competing at the Rising Star level one day.

I originally started dancing at the ages of 3 but stopped for a number of years. I have been dancing competitions for about 10 years now. I recently relocated to Belgium from South Africa for my studies and therefore ended up not having a partner. I currently still train alone and would like to start dancing competitions again with a partner. I am very dedicated and always try my best.

I am positive open minded, socially orientated flexible, sensible, intelligent, educated, having a good sense of humour.

I am well established medical professional M.D, having my own practice. I am fond of travelling and experience new places and people.

Dancing has been my hobby for short time, but I am very capable to learn quickly.

I had danced in the UK university circuit for three years before I stopped due to relocation.

The best result I got was final in intermediate ballroom in IVDC.

However, due to location and travel, I couldn't continue dancing with my partner, and would like to find a partner locally.

I danced ballroom in childhood and dance ballroom and rhythm since 2018 at a dance studio

I've been taking ballroom dance lessons for six years at Arthur Murray Folsom. I've dance in a showcase in London, and also one at Tahoe, but am humble, because I'm still only in Bronze 2. So what I need is more practice, than that requires a practice partner. I am older than most, but active and energetic, and have no trouble doing a lively Lindy hop or polka as well as other styles. I'd like to improve my technique and leading skills, and help you along the way as well. I can provide some extra dancing benefits. Let's talk and see if we can work out a partnership that works for both of us.

I've been dancing for about 20 years. I enjoy dancing country western steps such as the two step, polka and waltz. I also like dancing swing to classic rock, classic soul, and big band swing. I dance a 'slot' swing using the quick/quick, slow/slow rythm (such as the country and western two step). I also like to dance to salsa music using the bachata or merinque steps. Many people have commented that I have a smooth dance style with very quick feet.

Ballroom, Lindy and Country Ballroom. I run a youth formation team as well as teach dance at a K-5 school full t8 e.

I already have a life partner but she has some physical limitations so I'm looking for a dance partner without a romantic relationship. A good friendship and good partner chemistry would be nice though.

Fairly new to ballroom. Willing to work hard to improve! I've been taking group lessons for about a year now in various styles but I feel my progress has been limited without a dedicated partner with whom to practice. Would be looking to practice/take lessons three times a week and once (maybe longer) on the weekends. I am very open to competing if my partner wants to do so but would not rule out a partner who prefers practice and social dancing at this point.

I am Beginner Bronze in the styles listed below except those I list as "I would like to learn" below (meaning haven't tried yet).

Dance styles I am interested in:

International Standard including Waltz, V-Waltz, Tango,Foxtrot and would like to learn Quickstep

Latin Including Rumba, Cha Cha, Samba and would like to learn Paso Doble

American Smooth including Waltz, V-Waltz, Tango, Foxtrot

Rhythm including Rumba, Cha Cha and East Coast Swing.

I am open to other dance styles as well if my partner has a favorite I have not listed.

I would prefer someone who wants to be dedicated to a partnership with me but I am willing to train/practice with anyone in my area while they search for their dream-partner :). So send me an email if that's you.

I was a professional ballet dancer for several years, and began ballroom dancing about eight years ago. I have competed in pro/am and amateur in Latin, standard, smooth, and rhythm. For the past few years I have been focusing only on smooth at gold level.

I would love to become a professional dancer and travel the world competing and training others. I run a construction company and in joy what I do, it gives me flexible hrs, travel time when I want it, and options to live other places in the world. I like to eat health and work out. I love playing music guitar, piano, drums, trumpet, and some vocals. I in joy learning about spiritual things to grow as a person and experience life to the fullest. Im a positive person that can be out going as well as relaxed and take it easy. Im comfortable at the Gold level in ballroom and feel that im ready for pre-champ or would consider taking the jump to Champ. Salsa I would like to compete at the world salsa championships and feel with enough training we could do well :) Im open to 2-3hrs a day of practice 5-7days a week....

In 1996, I started ballroom and east coast swing while studying for bar. After a 5-year hiatus to focus on practicing law, I started salsa in 2002. A year later, I got back into ballroom and have since completed a teacher training program. I've ballroom danced on TV (enough to qualify for SAG), and I've done a number of amateur dance competitions (with hope to do more). I have danced completely around the world as a social dance host on a cruise line. On top of practicing law in Pasadena, I teach beginners how to dance and try to go social dancing at least 2-3 times a week. I'm all in!

I am looking for a dance partner within an hours drive. I am personally interested in international standard and latin, but I am open to working on other forms. I have basic experience in most styles. I've competed 4 times.

Ballroom Dancer looking for a partner to practice perform and social dance.

I have passed Gold Bar three in ballroom and Gold Bar three in Latin American. I prefer ballroom, foxtrot being my favourite dance. I have private lessons, but would love a partner to dance with and practice with. I also attend 'Mr. Wonderful' tea dance afternoons. I also enjoy dancing the Rhumba. I dance, cha cha cha, Paso, and jive. In ballroom, I dance waltz, foxtrot, quickstep and tango. I have recently been doing some old time dancing too.

I recently moved to Portland. I was active in a swing & blues group and a salsa group in grad school, and then took private swing lessons during the pandemic. Hoping to find a partner to do some more regular dance practice in Portland.
