FAQ

What types of dance styles can I learn at Dance Sport Academy?

Our Main Line dance studio teaches all different dance styles of Ballroom and Latin and offer dance classes for kids, as well as, adult ones. You can learn rhythms of Salsa dance, Rumba, Merengue, Mambo, Bolero, Samba, Cha-Cha, Jive, East Coast Swing and West Coast Swing; Club dances like Hustle and Argentine Tango and many others! If you prefer smooth dance styles, we offer those as well including Foxtrot, Waltz, Viennese Waltz, Quickstep, and Tango.

Do I need a background in dance to start?

No previous dance experience is necessary. Over time, students develop skill and grace. They also improve their posture, coordination and understanding of the elements of different dance styles. Our dance classes for kids are grouped into beginner and advanced levels.

Do I Need A Dance Partner?

No, you do not need a partner. Our highly trained professional dance teachers partner students who come in to take lessons on their own. In a group class setting everyone is encouraged to switch partners.

How Long Are Your Lessons?

Private lessons and group lessons are 45 minutes in duration. Many of our clients find that taking two lessons in a row helps them learn even faster.

When Can I Schedule my lesson/class?

Private lessons: We teach all of our private lessons by appointment only. Please call us at 610-642-2525 or email us at [email protected]. Although our office hours are Monday through Friday, from 1pm to 10pm, private lessons can be scheduled outside our office hours. We also schedule private lessons on Saturdays/Sundays in advance.

Group Classes: Our group classes for adults and group dance classes for kids are offered throughout the week. Please refer to our Group Schedule through our website’s group class page. You can book your lessons right through our online scheduler, or by contacting us by email.

What Should I Wear To My Lessons?

We suggest wearing comfortable clothing that allows for movement. Our only rule is that you don’t wear black, rubber-soled shoes, as they tend to scuff-up the dance floor. If you are taking lessons for a particular event, you may want to practice in the shoes you will wear to it. Our more serious students invest in dance shoes and practice clothing. We are happy to point you in the right direction for these items.

What’s the cancelation policy?

DSA maintains a 24-hour cancellation policy for private lessons and a 5-hour cancellation policy for group classes. Failure to give notice will result in you being charged for the lesson. For private lessons we do make exceptions in certain emergency situations or if you reschedule (depending on the instructor availability) within the same week.

What Are The Benefits Of Dancing?

Dancing is a great way to meet new friends, maintain fitness and develop body awareness. Improved weight control, flexibility, heart health, and stress reduction are also benefits of ballroom dancing. Children gain more confidence and boost their self – esteem by mastering dance steps and routines. Dancing also increases sense of accomplishment and personal growth!

Where Do People Go To Dance?

You can practice your fancy footwork at weddings, parties, fund-raisers, black-tie events, corporate functions, Latin night clubs and cruise lines. Of course, we would love to have you dancing at our quarterly social dance parties and weekly Latin/Salsa Dance Nights!

We offer 4 major parties throughout the year and the most amazing Holiday Party in Decemer you don’t want to miss! Please check our Facebook events page for our next party.
