DANCE LOVERS BALLROOM DANCING LESSONS | Who We Are

Our instructional DVDs are a way to reach thousands across the world as we share the joy of learning to dance. The positive emails, phone calls, and mail we receive is gratifying and overwhelming. We've never boasted to be world-class dancers but we are first class instructors. When we owned a ballroom in Illinois, we taught up to 1000 a week. Our students were thrilled when we came out with DVDs... they loved "taking us home with them."

Foster's been dancing since he was in high school. Being a perfectionist, he started taking dance lessons after he got out of the service because each girl he dated wanted him to take them dancing.

After a brief time of taking private lessons Foster was put in a teacher training class... and the rest is history. He went on to own several studios and eventually went independent and owned a 12,000 square foot ballroom.

Judi always loved to dance. Her parents sent her for lessons in ballet, tap, and toe when she kept dancing in front of the television ... right along with the dancers on the screen. She went on to take folk dancing, modern dancing, and jazz dancing before finding her place on the floor at Foster's ballroom in a disco class in the 70's. A strong friendship formed and Judi went to work for Foster as his office manager; they worked together 10 years before starting to date... and now have just passed their 15th wedding anniversary.

Dance Lovers' DVD business is growing but most days, if you call, either Foster or Judi or one of their enthusiastic students will help you with your questions and your order. We still actively teach classes and private lessons so if you get the answering machine, please do leave your name and phone number; we're diligent about returning calls.

We're continually honored with the compliments we receive on the information in the DVDs, the ease of learning from them, and our exceptional customer service. We are not trying to prepare people for a competition; we offer solid material for social dancing: learning patterns, learning to lead and follow, and increasing joy and confidence on and off the dance floor.
