Partner Dancing Basics

The ability to lead and follow is the primary ingredient in enjoying social dancing. Leading and following allows a dance couple to move together as a unit without the need for a specific song, music, or memorized choreography. Once you learn to Lead or Follow from your body's movement rather than your arms, leading and following becomes easier, more natural, more comfortable and more fun.
