The dance is a poem of which each movement is a word.
Now Announcing Lessons for the Winter of 2023
Our lessons are open to adolescents and adults, couples, family and friends dancing together, and single dancers. We invite but do not enforce partner rotation, so single dancers will spend some time practicing alone.
Contact Tom for more information: 613-361-2056 or tom@tommanley.ca. Join our newsletter for notices of new sessions each season.
If you have taken lessons with Tom and Isabelle, then please consult our list of video demonstrations, so you can practice at home and refresh your repertoire as the years go by.
