Night and Day Dance is a husband-and-wife duo that teaches and performs in Vancouver BC.
Our specialty is a style of partner dance that can be adapted to any type of venue, occasion, or music. We also teach blues, swing, salsa and merengue, tango basics, and dancing for weddings.
Dance Lessons Our Way
We teach the basics: leading and following, footwork, using the music, and moving through space. Partner dancing this way surpasses steps and becomes very open-ended. It means you won't spend all your time memorizing patterns. Instead, you will spend your time dancing, discovering new possibilities, and improving your sense of coordination and comfort on the dance floor.
Our Dance Studio
We offer a cozy, private setting, one in which students feel safe trying new things. Our space has laminate flooring and full-height mirrors, and we can adjust the heat to your liking.
Our studio is also inhabited by our orange and white cat Marmalade. He enjoys watching our students learn to dance. For the rare cat-allergic student, he doesn't mind waiting outside until the lesson is over.

UPDATE:
Daytime Discounts
It's wedding season! All those weddings mean more wedding dances, so our evening lesson times fill up quickly. To balance things out a little, we're taking $5 off per hour for lessons before 5 pm Mon-Fri. Just mention the daytime discount!
Blues Competition: We Won!
We made a last-minute decision to enter the blues competition at this year's Lindy Bout II weekend. Staying true to our quiet but intensely connected style of dance, we managed to please the judges and wow the audience, and were chosen as the winners by thunderous applause. For David's take on the whole experience, read his blues competition blog entry. We have also updated our gallery with photos of the event.
