You don’t need a partner (though you might just find “her” there!), just be ready to dance, dance, dance! Whether you have two left feet or could beat out the best on Dancing with the Stars, you’ll have a great time with us! Bring your friends and your dancin’ shoes! (But leave your scents & favorite cocktail at home, please!)
