Connection and Partnering Techniques

Though there are many types of partner dancing moves, rhythms, and styles, one thing is common among all forms of partner dancing. The best dancers have honed their ability to communicate with their partners in ways that go well beyond just leading patterns. Introduce yourself to the world of advanced dance partnering by joining champion dancer and coach Tony Fraser with his partner Jaime Shannon as they teach and demonstrate partnering tricks of the dance trade
