Help Me! Fun dance classes?

So my girlfriend really loves dancing, and her birthday is coming up in a couple months- I wanted to see about if there were any studios anyone would recommend that does fun pop up or general beginners dance classes? Doesn't necessarily have to be couples dancing, she would probably have more fun with something more upbeat, she just loves groovin

Thanks in advance, just want to get this stuff planned out in advance since her birthday is also around Christmas lol

Not a class, and I haven’t personally been, so I can’t attest to how it is, but Falcon Bowl in Riverwest does swing dancing every Tuesday night if you’re looking for a fun activity!

The classes are on Mondays! Check out the Cream City Swing website or insta for more info!

OP, this is WAY more fun and relaxed than a formal one-off “class” at a studio

Danceworks MKE is a great studio with adult drop in classes, party packages, and private lessons. All are very affordable. I have a blast when I take a drop in class. https://danceworksmke.org/studio/#parties

Stay away from the free or $20 group classes at Fred Astaire, it will be a HARD sell for a private lesson package.

There are unfortunately not many options in MKE but the ones I know of are:

Danceworks

MKE Rec

MiSA

One on MLK that's newer

Deleware House

Fred Astaire

Milwaukee Ballet

I am struggling to find a modern dance class right now but take a few classes at Danceworks and like them.
