A lesson hour is 50 minutes of instruction, with a 10 minute buffer for break, review and rescheduling. They are held at our studio in Christiansburg, and can be scheduled, according to your schedule and the instructor's availability:

- On weekdays or weekends
- Between 9am and 10:30pm
- Up to 3 months in advance or occasionally with as little as a few hours notice

Maximizing the use of our facilities is one way we can keep prices down for you. Therefore, we appreciate any professional courtesy you can extend, and reserve the right to charge for any lesson canceled within 24 hours of the appointed time.

Private Lessons (1-2 people)

Uneasy about the idea of group class? Taken several group classes, and not sure what to do next?

Private lessons may be the best way to get started. Or you may find yourself at that crucial point in your learning process, where private instruction would be the perfect ingredient… to enhance your progress, refresh the memory of forgotten steps, fine tune partnering skills and personal style, as well as gain that needed confidence.

You will be amazed at how much more you get out of a lesson with a one-to-one or a two-to-one student-teacher ratio! That's because the lesson is catered to you and only you.

Cost (revised Sept. 06):
$40 per lesson
      or
Buy 7 lessons and get 1 free - $280* (only $35/lesson)
      or
Buy 12 lessons and get 4 free - $480* (only $30/lesson)

First-time customers: receive 30% off of a group of 4 lessons
    - 4 lessons for $112!

* Can be divided into 2 equal payments. See studio for details.

If you bring your entourage of 1, the price includes both of you. The second person is typically your partner, but note that a lesson with 2 followers or 2 leaders (where instructor fills opposite role) is still priced as a private lesson.

Bonus: Students who take private lessons regularly are also invited to use the dance floor for practice, free of charge, whenever the studio is already open for other private lessons.

Semi-Private Lessons (3-6 people)

The more you dance, the more fun you'll have and the more benefits you'll receive from it. And, who better to practice and learn with than friends? That's why we also give the option of semi-private lessons.

You still get a higher degree of individual attention, relative to group classes, and though the total price increases as the number of people increase…the actual cost per person goes down!

# of People 3 4 5 6
Price per Lesson $54 $60 $70 $78
Price per Lesson per Person $18 $15 $14 $13
(prices revised Sept. 06)

Semi-Private Lessons may also be purchased in packages, with payment made in 2 equal installments:
      - Buy 7 & get 1 Free or
      - Buy 12 & get 4 Free.
