Vision Impaired Dance Classes
The Vision Impaired Dance classes are a fun, social way to help you improve fitness, posture, and exercise both your body and mind to great music in a social environment. Ballroom Fit will be teaching all the popular Ballroom Dances including the Cha Cha, Samba, Jive, Tango and Waltz. For Vision Impaired Dance classes the leader and follower communicate with each other through touch and weight transfer. Dancers take cues through a physical connection, with the leader using it to communicate to the follower just as the follower uses it to suggest feedback.
The dance classes start with everyone in a circle doing warm up exercises. In an hour long session participants will take part in up to three different styles of ballroom dance. Each one is performed to music. At the end of the session there are cool down exercises.
This class is suitable for any age, gender or race. Dancing is for everyone!

“It’s really empowering to teach dance to people who have never experienced it before. Music lifts the spirit and dance can be very addictive.”
