Dance Lessons in Vaughan That Adhere to Medalist Standards

When you sign up for dance lessons in Vaughan with Arthur Murray, you’ll be introduced to our Medalist Standards. Our curriculum is designed to teach dance in logical order, from easiest to more difficult, with each level of dance classes consisting of the building blocks for the level above. At our dance lessons in Vaughan, we even provide progress checks to make sure you can see your measurable improvement. Our interrelated system of teaching ensures that you will learn what you want to learn quickly and efficiently.

Introductory

The Introductory Level of dancing is designed to familiarize you with the most fundamental skills needed for partner dancing. In this level of dance classes you will learn about communication, poise & posture, basic timing, and basic patterns.

Foundation

At the Foundation Level, you will learn the basics in several dances while focusing on refining your understanding of the fundamentals, like dance hold, partnering skills, timings and patterns. By the end of the foundation level of dance lessons, most students have a much clearer idea of what they wish to achieve during the course of their dance education.

Bronze

The Bronze level of dance lessons in Vaughan is the social standard. It can be equated to earning your High School Diploma in Dance. Bronze dancers are confident in their abilities and blend easily into any social dance situation. They are never lacking for a partner. At the higher levels of Bronze, dancers will be more polished, and may even garner the attention of onlookers. Arthur Murray’s Bronze Program is broken down into four levels:

Beginning Bronze
In this level you will learn the basic patterns necessary to get by in any social dancing situation. You will learn the basic rhythm and step for the dances, as well as a get out of trouble step and a few turns and variations.

This level is still considered a foundational level in your dancing, as you solidify your knowledge of basic skills.

Associate Bronze
At the Associate Bronze level, your dance classes in Vaughan will focus on polishing the skills and patterns you learned in your Beginning Bronze, as well as increasing your ability to maneuver around a crowded dance floor.

The Associate Bronze Graduate would be considered your average social dancer.

Advanced Bronze
In this level, you will notice that your comfort on the dance floor increases dramatically. You are learning how to dance in smaller spaces, use tighter turns, maneuver even more adeptly, and work with the rhythm of the music.

Most students find that this level is a little bit like the first time you drove your car on the highway—exhilarating and exciting!

Full Bronze
At the Full Bronze level, you will continue to polish all of the skills and techniques you have been learning, as well as increasing your flexibility on the dance floor. You will learn to add a new degree of smoothness and continuity to your dancing as well as new ways to quickly change direction.

Students of our dance classes in Vaughan who achieve this level of dance are considered to be exceptional social dancers!

Silver

The Silver level of dancing is the equivalent of a Bachelors Degree in Dance. Students who typically continue to Silver take their dancing seriously and want to become more refined than most social dancers.

At a night club, the Silver level dancer will feel totally at ease and in control and will often clear the floor when they let their skills fly.

Gold

The Gold level of dancing is like getting your Doctorate Degree in Dance. Gold level dancers are hobbyist dancers who love to learn and love to dance. Many Gold level dancers have chosen to pursue their ballroom dancing education as a lifelong hobby.
