College ballroom clubs hold competitions in which even newcomers, who have only danced weeks or months, can compete. One way to find other people with your interest level is to join the DanceSport Program . We also offer a Partner Matching service. You can join a UCBD formation team, where several couples dance to the same choreography in a performance. With over 20 dance studios in the San Francisco Bay Area, there are many places to take partner dance lessons locally.
Most studios teach ballroom dances, Latin dances, and club dances.
A few also teach Argentine tango. Some cater primarily to beginning and intermediate students, while others draw more advanced dancers, particularly those interested in competition. The best way to learn what they offer is to call them to request copies of their monthly calendars. Also inquire about discounts for UCBD members or full-time students. Here are a few more general dance links.
