The Duxbury Sociables

The Duxbury Sociables is a series of ballroom dance classes designed to introduce youngsters to the basics of social dance and etiquette. Each class is opened and closed with a formal receiving line in which the children learn to shake hands properly, to look people in the eye and to introduce themselves correctly.

Although the classes are highly structured and well supervised, they are designed to include party dances, contemporary dances and dance games with prizes. This makes the Sociables a fun way for children to learn and practice social skills together.

Please note that we are capping the number of students in this class this year. Spots are limited to keep a balanced number of boys and girls, so we recommend enrolling early! We will accept registrations in the order in which they are received.

Class Policies & Logistics

• No Date Required: Your child does not need a partner or a date to attend these classes. In fact, dating is strongly discouraged to maintain a friendly, inclusive environment for all students.
• Traffic & Safety: For the safety of the children and to avoid traffic congestion, please enter and leave the church grounds in a clockwise direction.
• Carpooling: We highly suggest that students carpool to make the drop-off and pick-up process much smoother for everyone.

 
Dress for all classes

To maintain the traditional and polite atmosphere of the classes, we ask that students adhere to the following dress code:

• Boys: Suit or blazer with slacks, a dress shirt, a tie, and dress shoes or loafers. Please, no sneakers, Crocs, shorts, sweatpants, or jeans.
• Girls: Party dress, low-heeled comfortable shoes with a back strap, and white gloves.* Please, no sneakers, Crocs, or flip-flops.
• *White gloves can be purchased online via Amazon or eBay, or locally at a bridal shop.
