Boys dancing Ballroom and Latin

Dancing in Australia is often still considered a feminine activity and many parents never even consider dance classes for their sons. Consequently, boys are often steered towards sports, deemed more "masculine". This type of thinking is very superficial because you can actually be a great dancer and be very masculine at the same time, as can be seen in this short clip of Evgeny Smagin and his partner demonstrating a Cha Cha Cha at a dance camp overseas.



Moreover, here are several reasons why boys, specifically, should contemplate learning Latin and Ballroom Dancing!


Since in competitive Ballroom Dancing, a boy and a girl work together as a couple from an early age, it teaches leadership and allows boys to learn how to communicate with girls, learn to work in a team, developing leadership skills and a desire for victory.

Ballroom Dancing teaches boys how to respect girls with discipline and courtesy

Competitive Ballroom dancing teaches trust because the dance couples must rely on each other


Engaging in Ballroom Dancing provides a distinct sense of self that is independent from school social groups. This can ease the pressure and can build confidence for them as an individual instead of imitating or seeking approval from their peers.
