Dancing is such a fun and healthy way to spend time together or with friends. If I could, I would dance every day of the week. I love ballroom dancing and have taken workshops over the years for a variety of dances. I never get tired of learning new steps.

Since I was young, I have danced at home with my sisters, with friends at high school and college “mixers”, at parties and weddings. My husband has been seen dancing in the aisles of the local food store. We danced on the altar at our wedding. Dancing is a part of our lives. It is so creative and lots of fun.

When we moved to Carlisle, we found dancing a great way to meet new people, to spend time with one another, and to socialize. The best part of dancing is that you can dance at any level from beginner to advanced and enjoy yourself to the fullest. In many dancing situations, other dancers are more than happy to help you with a new step.

We are very fortunate to have many dance opportunities in and around the Cumberland Valley. Ballroom Dancing appears to be very popular in this area.

There is the GREEN DOOR (http://www.centralpaswingdance.org/) where the Central PA Swing Dance Club meets every Tuesday and Saturday. It is a great place for young adults to get a lesson and practice some moves. It is open to the public.

The Carlisle Parks and Recreation Dept has dance lessons and a dance the second Saturday of the month. (http://www.carlislepa.org/)

There is Always Time for Dance in Camp Hill (http://www.atfdance.com/)

How about Agape in York (http://danceatagape.com/)

Frank Hancock is a local dance instructor who makes ballroom dancing instruction simple and fun. He has taught many, many couples in the area to dance. (http://hancockdance.com/)

I have a network of friends who keep me posted on dance events from Lebanon, Harrisburg, York, Waynesboro, and DC. There is no shortage of places to dance.

If you would like to get your feet wet, we can give you a basic lesson at the Red Cardinal B&B. When you make a reservation, tell us that you would like a lesson. We would be more than happy to oblige!!

LET’S DANCE!!! Can’t you just picture yourself now in Dirty Dancing or Grease or Flashdance or in Michael Jackson’s Thriller!!
