Bay West Ballroom

It’s a much older crowd, but anyone of any age or level can learn a great deal here. I particularly enjoy the international standard classes. Would definitely recommend!

The Bay West Ballroom is a warm and friendly place to learn how to dance. Both the private classes and group classes are great. I am amazed that within one hour of a group class you learn the basic steps for a dance and a full routine. I was never comfortable taking dance classes until I found Mark, the owner with his wife Andrea, and the other wonderful instructors. If you want to learn to dance in a safe and fun environment, go to Bay West Ballroom.

Bay West ballroom has a very friendly atmosphere and is great for learning to dance all social and competitive styles of ballroom and Latin dance. Their parties are especially fun — their Halloween party is always packed. Mark and Andrea put on super entertaining and fun shows — with elaborate costuming and lighting — fun for everyone involved. They have drop in classes and make a very comfortable atmosphere for beginners to start to dance.

I walked in to Bay West about a year ago and I found a great group of students and teachers. Their scheduled is packed with beginning to intermediate to advanced classes. They have one or two dance parties a week.
I had no idea that I could dance when I started. It took me lot’s of repetition to get the basics down. Now I can learn faster. I took group and private lessons, and now I do a lot of social dancing at the Top of the Mark and at the Verdi Club in SF. There is lots of great dancing in the Bay Area. It is great exercise and a lot of fun.
The owners, Mark and Andrea, have created a very comfortable place to learn and have fun. Dancers everywhere tend to be nice people, and that is true of the people at Bay West too.

This ballroom has quite a bit of West Coast Swing dancing at this studio. Classes on Monday and Thursday nights.
WCS dances on Thursday, Friday and the 2^nd Saturday of the month.
