Welcome to DANCE WITH JANET !
I offer live, in-person classes in couples and line dancing six days a week. Please see the schedule below to find a class near you which fits into your lifestyle. Times, locations, and the level of the class are noted. This is where you’ll learn the dances we do in “The Real World”, and where lifelong friendships are made (Really!! Corny but true!!!). We truly belong to a WONDERFUL community of people! I look forward to including you in our group. Register for a class TODAY!
Online lessons and DVDs are available, but if you prefer learning in-person, I teach group classes in Bloomingdale, Darien, Elgin, Glen Ellyn, Hanover Park, Itasca, Mt. Prospect, Oakbrook Terrace, St. Charles, Warrenville, West Chicago, Westmont, & Wheaton. Private Lessons are also available by appointment. See what the classes are like on the Line Dance Classes & Couples Dance Classes pages.

As more classes are officially scheduled they’ll be added to the calendar. Please use this calendar as a guide for future classes; they’ll be offered at the same times. Regarding class content, couples dances rotate (we teach one type of dance for a four week class) and will be noted in the schedule. Specific moves taught will be tailored to the class participants’ needs & abilities. Line dances also rotate so each class session is different. Visit the Dances We’re Learning tabs under Line Dance to see what has been taught so far. I’ll introduce new line dances, and will add them to the lists as they are taught.
