There are a lot of reasons to add partner dancing to your holiday social calendar this year. It’s a great icebreaker when party guests don’t know one another, it helps burn off all those extra holiday calories, and most of all, it’s a ton of fun. Did you know you can Foxtrot to Jingle Bell Rock or The Bangles, Walk like an Egyptian? Just pick your favorite songs and grab a partner. Ballroom dancing doesn’t have to mean sticking with the old standards.

We are proud to introduce the Jacksonville Dance Alliance, a cooperative effort of Jacksonville-area dance studios that’s putting ballroom back on the map. If you love So You Think You Can Dance? and you’re practically addicted to Dancing with the Stars, we think it’s time you put your feet where you heart is, and get on the dance floor. You don’t even need a partner to get started. Just find a studio near you (hyperlinked) and sign up for a free introductory lesson.
