Lewisburg, West Virginia – Carnegie Hall invites couples to discover the elegance, rhythm, and romance of one of Latin ballroom dance’s most beloved styles in Learn to Ballroom Dance: Let’s Rumba!, a three-week beginner-friendly series led by Dr. Julian Meadows and Friends. Designed for participants who are new to ballroom dance as well as those looking to refine their technique, this engaging course offers a welcoming introduction to the foundations of the Rumba.

Often referred to as one of the most romantic ballroom dances, the Rumba combines smooth movement, expressive rhythm, and meaningful partner connection. Throughout the series, participants will learn the fundamental steps and patterns of the dance while developing confidence in footwork, hip movement, timing, and the essential lead-follow relationship that makes partner dancing both effective and enjoyable. By breaking down each element into approachable lessons, instructors will help couples build skills and confidence together on the dance floor.

The series meets on Tuesdays, November 24, December 1, and December 8, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Registration is per couple, and participants must bring a partner to learn with. The class is open to adults 18 and older.

Tuition is $90 for Carnegie Hall members and $110 for nonmembers. Scholarships are available, allowing adults 50 and older to participate for just $45.

Learn to Ballroom Dance: Let’s Rumba! is part of Carnegie Hall’s ongoing commitment to providing engaging arts and enrichment opportunities that inspire creativity, learning, and community connection.
