(formerly Willamette Chapter)
USA Dance is proud to host the first annual PDX Ballroom Classic in January at the Scottish Rite in Portland, OR! This amateur competition is for youth, adults, teens, and team competitors. And of course, we can’t have a competition without spectators!
For more information, check out our PDX Ballroom Classic Page.
Five hours of FREE beginner dance lessons, followed by a general dance party in the evening. No partner is required – just bring yourself, family, friends, fiance, even your next door neighbor. If you’ve wanted to try ballroom dancing but haven’t yet, now is the time!
We have assembled some of the best pro dance instructors in the Metro area who are volunteering their time and energy to introduce you to the wonderful world of ballroom. Don’t miss this great opportunity to get a feel for what ballroom dancing is all about! After all, it only comes once a year.
The Day of Dance is designed for the new dancer or for those who have always wanted to dance, but were rather timid, shy, or even afraid to go to a dance! From the elegant Waltz to the Cha-Cha, the East Coast Swing to the Foxtrot, the Rumba to the Salsa, you can try as many as you like! It’s all there for you take it all in. And remember, the lessons are free! (Although a $1 donation per lesson would be appreciated!)
