Ballroom Dance, from Beginner to Advanced
DanceSport at OSU is Ohio State's one stop spot for all ballroom dancing. Our members range from two-left feet to might-as-well-go-pro, so all are welcome. Most of our members have ZERO dance experience before joining! It doesn't matter what your dance background may be, everyone can be a part of the team!
Every week, the club teaches a new dance. Stop by to learn to waltz, foxtrot, cha-cha, tango, swing, and so many more. If you can dance it, we can teach it! And if you don't have a partner, don't sweat it; no partner necessary. You are sure to make friends during a fun night of dancing if you come to one of our events.
