Places to Dance:
BallroomDancers.com Studio Directory
This is the most comprehensive online listing of studios I have found, so I prefer just to link to it rather than try to duplicate all of their efforts myself! You can search both internationally, and by US state, and there is a form to add your own listing as well, if you have a dance studio. Dance studios are one of the best places to go and dance, because you will usually find a range of ability, so there is sure to be someone at your level to dance with! Most studios offer monthly or weekly dance events that are open to the public, so call one in your area and ask. Another bonus is, of course, there are professionals there to help if you decide you want to learn some new moves yourself!
