2026 dance class.jpg

Put on your "dancing shoes" because the IAHF is pleased to announce this free dance demo with plans to provide on-going dancing instruction. Free introductory Ballroom Dance exhibit with Giulio Ferrante.

​

Giulio is an accomplished, award-winning ballroom dance instructor who was born near Catania, Sicily. He is fluent in Italian, Spanish and English. He is a local dance instructor and participates in competitive dancing in the UK, Spain and Italy with his lovely partner, Lisa.

​

The event will start with classic Latin dances, followed by other styles and types of dance steps. We will be inaugurating the dance program after this complimentary exhibit. There will be weekly classes on Tuesday nights from 6:00 to 7:00 pm. Our Foundation will host "Studio Italia" dance classes. You don’t have to "dance with the stars" to enjoy the fun of ballroom dancing.

​

Dance is growing in popularity, and this program is open to all ages and interest.

Details about the dance program will follow the exhibition program. So, check out the scene at our exhibition program on April 21, 6:00 to 7:30 pm at the IAHF, 425 North 4th Street.
