Great Escape: Grab Your Dancing Shoes

What could be more romantic than dancing with your significant other? The rhythm of the music as you sync your bodies together and then the finish, when your partner holds you above their head while the crowd cheers.

Dancing skills not quite up to Dirty Dancing finale level yet? Thank goodness there is The Dance Doctor, also known as John Cassese. At his dance studio right on Fourth Street, you can choose from a variety of dance classes (from beginning salsa to introductory hip-hop), or grab a private lesson with one of the very talented and very patient instructors.

The motto of the studio is, “If you can walk, you can dance.” So leave behind all hesitations about any lack of grace or any memories of what happened in sixth grade square dancing. Plus, as you and your partner learn a new set of skills, your bond will undoubtedly grow.

Then it will be time for the lift. Or not.
