Dancing with the Stars,
So You Think You Can Dance, Ballroom Boot Camp
and other shows about partnership dancing have been quite
popular this year. An average of 28.3 MILLION people
watched each episode of Dancing with the Stars, a
VERY impressive statistic that highlights the current
interest in Ballroom and Latin dancing.
In fact, there is so much
interest in this type of partnership dancing that dance
studios and dance teachers are finding it difficult to fit
everyone in for lessons. That, in turn, has created a huge
demand for qualified and highly trained dance instructors at
all levels.
