Ballroom and Salsa dance lessons Oakland, Alameda and the East Bay "Changing lives one step at a time." |

About Us: At Linden Street Dance Studio, our goal is to put you in charge of what you want to learn, whether you're just starting out or you're an advanced competitive dancer. Where the big franchise studios might try to steer you into a one-size-fits-all class, we'll work with you to teach you whatever steps you like, from a single dance for a party or wedding all the way up to an ongoing custom program just for you. Founded in 2006 by a group of professional instructors
who wanted to teach in the style they knew works best, Linden Street Dance
offers group lessons as well as one-on-one sessions for all levels of
experience. Our most popular courses are in Ballroom and Salsa dancing,
but if you've got something else in mind, we can show you the right
moves. Our facility near the Oakland
waterfront was formerly the practice studio for the Oakland Ballet, and is
located just a few blocks from Jack London Square. To schedule an
appointment, or to learn more about us, click on one of the links above or
give us a call at (510)
444-3404.

$50 per person for 4 week series or $15 a class Call to sign up - 510.444.3404 ![]() Argentine Tango Boot Camp with Murat & Michelle Erdemsel for Experienced Dancers Feb 11 & 12, 2012 (10:30a-6pm each day) 13
hrs of instruction packed into this fast paced, kick-butt weekend of
intensive Argentine Tango for experienced dancers. The focus of this
boot camp is the signature style of Murat & Michelle. Take a look
at their website for inspiration at www.muratandmichelle.com. One of
the things Murat & Michelle do best is teach musicality. The Sat
program will be dedicated to just that! Sunday will be reserved for
advanced figures and technique. Christy and other teachers will be on
hand to assist the Boot Camp as well.
This is the first time since Christy’s Boot Camps began in Jan of 2007 that a boot camp is not taught by Christy (sometime with various partners). Murat & Michelle were invited because of their unique approach to the dance which Christy feels worthy of her Boot Camp reputation! Don’t miss this opportunity to study with these two amazing dancers and teachers. You may register with a partner (in which case you will not change partners) or solo (in which case you will rotate partners). Boot Camps are leader/follower balanced so sign up early to reserve your space. $189 per person. 2 day participation required. To register call Linden Street Dance at: (510) 444-3404
