The Heritage Center: 633 Mt Sinai Coram Road, Mt Sinai, NY

Classes at The Heritage Center are true dance classes, each session will work on building muscle memory for the select group of dances.  Dances are taught using visual, verbal, timing and spatial prompts with plenty of repetition and tempo changes so that dances can be remembered.  This is an active class which generally logs between 4,000 and 5,000 fitbit steps per hour for the FitBitters in the group.  However, class is so fun you don't even realize it's exercise.   

The Heritage Center has beautiful wood floors perfect for line dancing. Please wear smooth soled shoes, cowboy boots work great! (leather soles or well worn shoes are fine). Sneakers grip the surface and can make turns more difficult. Please NO FLIP FLOPS for dancing!!!
