We’re delighted to announce the opening of our new teacher training studio, Ballroom College! It’s a dance studio like any other dance studio (with a couple of key differences that we’ll get to in a minute): we have a big open space with enough room for anyone to waltz the night away. Take a look!

Meet David and Kathy, our Dancers of the Month. David and Kathy took ballroom dance classes at the Chicago Park District for about one year, and then decided to take 25 years off before coming to BDC for lessons back in August 2018. They’ve been learning waltz, foxtrot and swing (swing being their fave). The Latin dances will come later!

Meet Elizabeth Davis, AKA Bette, our February 2020 Dancer of the Month! Bette is a California native who had intermittent stops in Arizona and Nebraska before calling Chicago home. Bette has been a part of BDC since very early on; he’s been dancing with Matthew since 2010 (almost 10 years!!!). In the period of time, she’s been a staple at our parties and social events and often lends a hand to hang a painting or take photos at an event. We love Bette and wouldn’t be the same without her!
