For the past 3 years she has performed in the local Delmarva Celebrity Dance Off  for the Cancer Support Community! In the summer of 2010 she opened her Ballroom Made Simple Dance Studio – a perfect setting for private and group dance lessons.

Through private training and group lessons, Pam has had the opportunity to dance with and take lessons with professionals Mayo Alanen and Nathan Simler. She strives to help new dancers acquire a polished look on the dance floor and to avoid developing bad dance habits. Community group lessons are generally kept small so students receive more personalized attention.

Ballroom Made Simple offers beginner group classes in American Style Foxtrot, East Coast Swing, Waltz, Rumba, Cha-Cha, Salsa, Samba, Merengue, & Tango. Some classes are a “one time only” workshop designed to introduce a particular rhythm to new dancers. Other classes extend over a period of several weeks to help the new dancer build a foundation of dance steps, styling and technique. So what are you waiting for?
