I started to dance ballroom in Moorpark Junior college, under the great dance teacher Dennon Rawles. I learned a variety of dances, including salsa, swing, tango, & waltz. I really enjoyed it, and now I go to social dancing and lessons for bachata. I enjoy sensual bachata. I have tried kiz, zouk, and others, and am open to all kinds.

Hi,

My name is MaryEllen and I have been ballroom dancing for about 5 years. The first year I was taking private lessons in American Smooth and for the past 4 years I have been taking private lessons in International Standard. I also do East Coast Swing, West Coast Swing. I am very much interested in finding someone who would like to practice, dance socially, do some showcases and at some point in time compete.

I used to compete Open Gold International Latin 14 years ago, and stopped dancing for 13 years to raise kids. I got back into dancing in early 2022. I'm struggling to figure out where I fit in with dancing because my body doesn't move like it used too 🙄, so, competition might not be right for me...unless it's just for the fun of it or with the right person. I really love social dancing and want to focus on the joy of dancing. I wouldn't mind doing performances or shows, though. And I still remember a lot of Latin technique and I'm confident that I can be a decent practice partner for Latin or teach what technique I know.

Since I only got back into dancing 1 year ago after a 13-year hiatus, I don't have too many recent dance-related photos. But I was allowed to upload some photos from 14+ years ago.

No dance background, willing to learn

Have danced sporatically since college. Currently involved with a Dance Academy that specializes in couples dancing

I am a playful, flirtatious, hard working and inquiring individual who is looking for someone to play with, dance with and explore life with. You may notice that I live in Wenatchee. I run a high-end electronics shop here with my father. We are developing it together after I returned in '07 after graduating college. I don't plan on being here forever, but I am looking for a close friend who enjoys being active, dancing, and who cares about her body as much as I care about mine.

I play tennis and golf every week, I enjoy surfing during the summer months and want to get back into ballroom dancing. I've danced American style smooth and rhythm, a little international standard and latin, salsa, argentine tango, some west coast swing and hustle... Looking to practice with someone on a regular basis working on specific dances or learning full routines. I believe dancing is a great form of exercise and fun.

Re-started dancing ballroom after a long break, but now lacking a partner to continue learning and developing and to go to social events. Have silver medals in Latin American, ballroom, and classical sequence and just started working on gold medal standard. I also dance some Argentine tango and looking for a partner for this. I have taken part in competition dancing at intro/bronze level. I am also a keen Ceroc dancer and try to dance this a couple of times a week as well.

I’m a very capable leader in most ballroom dances and enjoy them all. American Smooth dances are my favorite. I absolutely love the power and grace of high quality Smooth dancing. There’s no better feeling than gliding across the floor with a capable partner, especially when there’s a strong established dance connection that has developed over time.

I'm an enthusiastic, experienced and focussed girl looking for the right partner to train up to S class and beyond with - ballroom only. I have a solid technical foundation and I work with top teachers. Given the right circumstances, I improve very quickly.

I have previously lived and trained in London UK, The Netherlands and Germany.

Currently I am living in Utrecht, the Netherlands.

I have been bellydancing for 25 years and social partner dancing for 12. I am most experienced in Brazilian Zouk but really love all styles of dancing. I currently teach Bachata, Zouk, & Bellydance (…and Art classes). I host socials and dance retreats in Hawaii. I want to be proficient enough to be someone people look forward to dancing again & again. I would like people to feel comfortable at & excited to attend my events, so having some regular well-trained leads available to participate would be ideal & I am willing to provide training.

Graduate of Bronze level. My favorite dance is salsa, but I also like ballroom dancing in general. Unassuming well-to-do gentleman and humble. Easygoing, kind, generous, adventurous, happy, outgoing, inspired, and inspiring. Well educated, cultured, well read, well traveled. Financially independent, established. Live in a nice, large pool home overlooking lake and preserve in Palm Harbor, Florida.

No wife, no kids, no disease. Well groomed, youthful looking and athletic. I'm obsessed with health and fitness and make working out and eating healthy my top priorities. I'm in excellent form, caring, passionate, and active. Currently, I am taking dance lessons in a dance studio in Oldsmar, Florida. Would you like to be my dance partner? I hear you saying "YES". Then, don't procrastinate, contact me now!

I used to teach in Seattle, WA. Now living in AZ, having a hard time meeting good dancers. I like to dance for FUN!!

I have recently started Latin ballroom classes in Fareham (as a lot of classes in Chichester will only allow couples) but I don’t have a partner to dance with. I became interested following some classes on cruises.

I've been dancing for 15 years (Fred's raised), and I was a former pro 10 years ago (Dance Vision certified), but I renounced my pro status back then. After that, I started to compete in open amateur, but I took a 5 year break because of my career path. I'm currently getting ready for North American Imperial Star Ball to brush off years of rust, but long term, I'm looking to dance American Smooth and/or International Ballroom, and looking to come back to pro one day.

Currently, my home studio I train out of is in Grand Rapids, MI, but I travel to Chicago for coaching regularly, and I'm fine with commuting as I already commute to Chicago & Indianapolis for coaching; relocating for a partnership opportunity within the Midwest is a possibility. I travel to take coaching regularly from Tommye Giacchino, Kristiina Ilo, and Gert Roslender.

I've danced collegiate while studying for my undergrad at Ball State University, and I was one of the founders for Ball State's Competitive ballroom team. A decade ago, I did pro/am, but during my undergrad, I went back to amateur to compete prechamp/champ level in the open amateur categories. I'm definitely eager to pro again, but I'd like to brush some rust off in amateur for a little bit before I come back to pro.

I am currently training in a dance team with a coach who uses Skippy Blair’s unit system. Her focus is alignment, relationship and rhythm as opposed to memorization of step patterns. Moves become an alphabet that I can spell into patterns in any dance language, instead of memorizing salsa language, swing language, two-step language separately. I have been training with her for over a year. Her method is conducive to fusion dance. I am limited in the time I can devote to it at the moment but I do wish to be a competitive amateur in the next 5 years and continue with my coach developing a dance community in Orange County CA. People of all ages are starving for dance venues and training in the respectful complementary relationship between partners that ballroom dance highlights. My dance teacher has some interesting analyses to share about the healthiness of relationships between her wedding dance couples based on the way they dance. I also am fascinated by the therapeutic integration benefits of dance.

I am a massage therapy student and massage has a lot in common with dance if done well.

Basically, I believe dance should be a freeing holistic experience and not enslavement to step patterns. It should be fun and a chance to make a real healthy, positive connection with partners.

Looking for a partner in Savannah, Hinesville, or Hilton Head Area.

I've been told am a good follower and have great rhythm My goal is to improve technique for social dancing, and I am open to training for performance dancing. Currently, I have accepted the challenge of performing a Quickstep routine at the studio I frequent, and ironically Salsa and American Rhythm, especially East Coast Swing, Cha-Cha and Rumba, are my favorites!

Hello I use to dance many many years ago in the 1970's when the hustle was the in dance. I love to dance and would make an excellent partner. Dancing is excellent exercise. I am a great follower and quick to pick up new dances and moves.

Experience teaching and competing collegiate ballroom prior to working for a studio - competed in 9 dance and formerly theatre arts. Due to partner split, I am seeking a new partner.
