We specialize in effective dance teaching of Latin, Ballroom, Salsa, and other dances. We ensure that all our students will progress quickly from their first lesson to the dance floor. And \u2013 most importantly \u2013 we do all of it with a lot of fun!<\/p>\n<p>We teach dancing as a language. Our students can dance with anyone who has learned the same style of dancing. We teach steps and variations and not structured routines. We also teach the roles of the leader and follower in relation to each other. We train our dancers to use musicality and sensuality. Our way of teaching is light and gradual. We start with the basic necessities to start dancing and then progress as much as the student wants to progress.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more details, please visit our&nbsp;<a title=\"Dance Lessons\" href=\"https:\/\/swingandsway.ca\/?page_id=71\">Lessons page<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_269\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swingandsway.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/DSC_00366-Small1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-269\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-269\" title=\"Rumba lesson by Rafael and Betty\" src=\"https:\/\/swingandsway.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/DSC_00366-Small1-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/swingandsway.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/DSC_00366-Small1-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/swingandsway.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/DSC_00366-Small1-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/swingandsway.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/DSC_00366-Small1.jpg 1085w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-269\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rumba lesson by Rafael and Betty<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ba9445;\">Our Dance Styles<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Ballroom and Latin Dancing in International \u2013 Social style.
