Most teachers offer both regularly scheduled group lessons and
private lessons by appointment. It is impractical to list prices and
lesson schedules, since they change frequently; contact teachers for
current information on their classes.
Independent dance teachers (listed by name rather than by studio
name) may rent time at dance studios or other spaces. Such locations can
change periodically; they are listed mainly to give an idea of the
general geographic area those teachers work in.
