Hania Richmond Teaches Waltz on
Wednesdays in June
No matter
what your dance goal, social or competitive,
Hania
Richmond is
the person to help you reach them. She has
brought five SNC members to be UCWDC World Champions and
many social dancers to advanced
status.
Check out Hania and her
Pro-Am student on YouTube performing the Waltz at
Worlds 2010.
Trivia: Many
people think the Tango was the first "forbidden dance"
but it was really the Waltz. When
the dance (formerly the Minuet) moved to
Austria and partners were allowed to touch,
church and government officials slandered the
idea. . |
