Seeking a Dance Practice Partner
I'm looking for a dance partner who wants to practice with purpose. Not someone interested in spending most of the session chatting or casually running through routines a few times. I mean the kind of person who understands that real progress comes from repeating the same eight-count until it finally feels natural, clean, and effortless.
What I Bring
1. Reliability – I show up on time, prepared, and ready to work. If we schedule studio time, you can count on me being there.
2. Constructive feedback – I'll give honest observations without criticism or ego, and I appreciate receiving the same.
3. Patience – Improvement takes repetition. If something requires fifty attempts to get right, that's simply part of the process.
4. A growth-focused attitude – My goal isn't to impress anyone; it's to improve. I value partnering with someone who feels the same way.
5. A positive practice environment – The studio should be a place where mistakes are expected, experimentation is encouraged, and laughter is welcome. No drama, no defensiveness, and no taking corrections personally.

Very physically fit, healthy and strong (I lift weights), swim climb, and do yoga. Look younger than my age. Look good in jeans, or in dressy Argentine Tango gear. Professional dude, but not
In a narcissistic way. I learned to dance 20 years ago, by taking lots and lots of group lessons, then practiced at weekly dances. Like most dancers, I was knocked out of the dance world for two years. I recently got back into it and was delightfully pleased that I didn't lose any ground. Maybe a wee rusty in a few styles, but I'm working out the kinks. My three favorite dance styles are still WCS, NC2, and Argentine Tango, which I can integregate into a fusion and delectably paint the floor. During the pandemic, I substituted dance with yoga. My balancing skills have improved and I'm ready to get it going with a special partner.

I love salsa & bachata music and dancing socially! I grew up around great dancers and have good rhythm, but have not had enough practice to really get far past basic turns in salsa and bachata. My goals are to increase my skills and confidence when dancing so that whoever I am dancing with is not bored by the same few turns over and over.

A hopeless outdoorsy romantic who unwittingly fell in love with Contra dancing 18yrs ago (still my favorite dance).
I also love 14 other ballroom & swing dances--& have been a dance class junkie the last 12yrs (mostly West Coast Swing). I usually take 1-2 group dance lessons 4 nites/wk--followed by 1-3hrs of social dancing. Plus one private lesson with champion instructor the last few months.
Also take lots of classes at 3-5 WCS conventions per yr, plus 5-7 Contra festivals, & one Country wkend. Dance wkends are usually my favorite times of the year. Almost forgot: it's great fun dancing to live music at Blues clubs & other venues 1-3x/month.
Other interests: bicycling (tandem, mtn, road, touring), hiking, traveling, musical & dance performances, movies, plus public TV/radio. Am a politically liberal Unitarian who is very respectful of the views of others.

I have a basic grounding in ballroom and Latin and used to compete on the university dance circuit in the Novice category a few years back (predominantly in waltz, quickstep, cha cha, rumba, and jive). I have two years of experience and am looking to get back into dance. I'd love to find a partner to practice with a few times a week, mostly for fun rather than competitions (although I'm not averse to competing if the opportunity presents). I'd be happy to sign up to classes and then practice together outside of them.
I also dance crossbody on1 salsa, and would also be interested in finding a partner to regularly practice salsa.

I am happy, that I had the chance and opportunity to dance a lot of international competitions including worldchampionships, blackpool and the international championships in london and reached the most of the time the final, sometimes the first three places in the senior categorie. My topteachers I had in Vienna, England and Italy.

Swing dancing drew me into ballroom dancing.
I’ve had lessons at social dances and some group at Pacific Ballroom Dance.
Looking to have private lessons to improve. Dancing for fun now but if I get that much better may consider competing if my partner wanted to.

My preference leans toward East Coast Swing. I am Bronze level in Waltz. Have also taken lessons in; West Coast Swing, Foxtrot, Rumba, Cha-Cha, Hustle, Salsa, etc. I am a non smoker and a non drinker and I have no association with drugs. I am a retired Manager from a large corporation and I am financially sound and emotionally stable. I enjoy dancing very much and take lessons 2-3 times a week and go to dances on week-ends. I would welcome the opporunity to have a steady dance partner where there is connection and chemistry along with mutual respect. I would be willing to relocate for the right person. I am very easy to get along with so don't be shy about contacting me.

I have been dancing ballroom and latin on and off for about 20 years but did not have a regular partner until 2019 and our progress was interrupted by covid restrictions. Unfortunately a foot injury now means my partner can no longer dance. I would say I am a proficient social dancer in ballroom and latin. I have been dancing modern jive for about twenty years and I am very good at it but go regularly to the same venue so do not need a partner for this but am very willing to int0rduce a potential partner.
