Originally, I learned single time swing in high school 25 years ago, salsa during College 20 years ago, and did some ballroom in the mid 2000s. Recently got back into it in 2023. In a typical week I'll have 2-3 hours of group lessons, with one or two social dances for about 1.5 hours each. Would love to practice once a week for a couple hours to go over all the dances and various moves, though I can be flexible on that. My goal is to have fun, make sure my follows have fun, and be competent on the dance floor.
While I am up for learning routines for performances, at the moment do not have the time or interest in competing.
I learn from a Fred Astaire Instructor in American Smooth & American Rhythm. I'm open to doing some international lessons, but primarily dance and practice American Smooth & Rhythm. Below is a quick description of my knowledge in each dance style:
Ballroom Swing / Single Time Swing / Single Time Jive: several steps
Bolero: most steps
Cha-Cha: all Bronze steps
Country Two Step: the first few steps
Disco Waltz: most bronze steps and a silver step
Foxtrot: Know the first 4-5 bronze steps
Latin Hustle: all bronze steps and some silver steps
Night Club Two step: Basic step, maybe a couple more
Rumba: all bronze steps
Samba: first few bronze steps
Tango: all bronze steps, some knowledge of silver steps
Viennese waltz: reverse turns, natural turns, and change/bridge steps.
Waltz: all bronze steps, beginning to learn silver
West Coast Swing: Knowledge of a few basic steps.

I danced hip hop and did cheer growing up, but didn’t start formal partner dancing until 2020. From 2020 to 2024, I trained and competed in ballroom, mainly international Latin, and had a lot of success, winning most of the events I entered. That said, my coaching followed the syllabus pretty strictly, and while it gave me a strong technical base, I’m now looking for more freedom, creativity, and fun in dance.
My goal is to continue improving with an intermediate partner who’s open to growth and variety. I’m interested in international cha-cha and rumba, Western dancing, and bachata/salsa—open to focusing on one or blending styles depending on what feels right.
I learn fast, I love musicality, and I value a good vibe and mutual respect in any partnership. I bring intensity when needed, but I also don’t take myself too seriously: I just love dancing and want to get better while enjoying the process... I laugh.. a lot lol.

I've been doing pro/am competitions and showcases most recently at the Open Silver level in international Latin and Standard. I'd like to find an amateur partner to practice with and eventually do amateur competitions together. Socially I also dance American style in addition to International style, and enjoy west coast swing, salsa, bachata, Argentine tango and other partner dances. I'm a quick learner and would dance at my level or higher.

I am a friendly guy who loves music, and who has a passion for dance. I started dancing at the age of 18 whilst studying for my Bachelor's degree in Oz (Australia), and moved here to the US last year to pursue my passion for this art form.
Basically I am looking for a female who shares my passion, and if you can be a friend too that would be a bonus, as I am looking to widen my social circle. (Dance IS a social activity after all)

I started dancing at 13 years old when my mom forcefully dragged me into the studio to take a lesson. Before then I thought I would hate it and never wanted to even try but just 10 minutes into the lesson I fell in love with dancing. For the next few years I was taking 2 lessons a day 5 days a week as well as participating in showcases and competitions. At 16 I ended up quitting dance for about a year but then got back into it at a new studio. I’m currently taking 1-2 lessons a week but I hope to do more soon.

I will be in Madrid from 9 January 2020 through 3 February 2020 and would like to attend one or more Tango Milongas or Practicas.
I am a beginning to intedrmediate Argentine Tango dancer looking for a partner who is serious about learning and practicing. I am also an advanced Salsa (and Merengue, Cha-cha and Bachata) dancer looking for a regular practice partner to improve my skills and to practice turn patterns before taking them out on the floor.
Although I am over 60 I think I dance at a "younger" level, whatever that means. I work out regularly and have the stamina to dance for three or four hours at a time.
I am an experienced dancer and have been dancing Salsa about fifteen years and regularly teach private lessons. My primary interest is in Argentine Tango and Latin "club style" dancing, but I would also be willing to work with a partner to learn other dances such as Samba, Kizomba, or West Coast Swing.
Although not willing to relocate, I am willing to travel frequently for the right dance partner.
