Tony and Tina are the principals of Simply Ballroom, Jersey. Tony danced competitively in the 1980's and came back to teach ballroom dancing ten years ago. He is qualified as an Associate with both the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dance, and the International Dance Teachers Association.
In our dance classes for adults we teach Ballroom, Latin American, Rock and Roll and Sequence Dancing from the complete beginner to Medal Awards. We provide the extra care for that most special wedding dance, through our private lessons.
We hold ballroom dancing classes in the island of Jersey throughout the year at all levels of competence, usually within school term time. We hold private lessons to help develop our dancers' technique when individual attention is more helpful.
All of our assistants at the dance school attend ballroom dancing training each month so that we all offer similar advice during individual support. We understand the importance of getting things right from the early stages of dancing. We teach our classes in a relaxed, non threatening way, in a sympathetic, supportive, encouraging and humorous atmosphere.

The dance school offers dance classes for adults of all abilities. Our beginners ballroom dancing courses are suitable for all adults with sound health and reasonable mobility. They prepare our dancers to be able to dance, simply, around a dance floor, by the end of their course. Our beginners courses usually include preparation for more than one dance in that genre, and our more advanced classes tend to concentrate on a single dance for the entire course.
We aim to provide a sound basis for both Ballroom and Latin American dancing, in our dance classes for adults of all abilities. We are an inclusive school and encourage diversity in all forms. Our mantra is "Treasure whatever mobility you have". In order to support the dancers from our dance school, we hold social dances at locations ar
We aim to provide a sound basis for both Ballroom and Latin American dancing, in our dance classes for adults of all abilities. We are an inclusive school and encourage diversity in all forms. Our mantra is "Treasure whatever mobility you have". In order to support the dancers from our dance school, we hold social dances at locations around the island and formal (black tie optional) dances at St Helier Town Hall. Because of their popularity, all our dances are Ticket only.

Our dancers are now able - after an absence of 20 plus years, to practice and submit themselves for assessment in either the Ballroom or Latin American Genre, by an IDTA examiner, from the UK.
We are delighted to confirm that our students all passed their July Award exams at the level of Commended and above, with almost two thirds receiving Honours.
Our next classes for medal preparation, covering (i) the Cha Cha Cha and Rumba, (ii) the Slow Foxtrot and Tango, and (ii) the Waltz and Quickstep, will take place from the end of September, on Fridays from 6.00pm onwards, at our Sion Studio. The Examination date for the awards is currently planned for January 2023.
Can anyone be submitted for assessment? Anyone who has completed our "New Improvers" courses covering those dances can join our Award Preparation classes.
