Acton Woman’s Club Dance Classes

For over 65 years, the Acton Woman’s Club Dance Classes have provided an exciting Friday evening out for thousands of AB students in grades 5-10.   In the large upstairs hall of the AWC Clubhouse, and within the social setting of dancing and music, students also learn the importance of being courteous, kind and polite.

This  series of  nine classes helps children develop social skills in formal and informal settings while having a great time mastering dancing skills.

By learning, and more importantly,  practicing social etiquette, our students walk away with the confidence of knowing what to do, not only in the ballroom, but in all situations in life.  The importance of a firm handshake, eye contact, posture, confidence, making a good first impression, standing as a sign of respect, everyday etiquette tips, escorting and seating partners and the importance of conversation are all addressed during the classes.

Join us…it is a life lesson for all!
