Ballroom Association at Duquesne 2022
What is the Ballroom Association at Duquesne?
The Ballroom Association at Duquesne started as an idea in a dorm room between two roommates. This idea was then turned into lessons through Zoom during the pandemic with only four members attending. Since being back on campus, our club has attained sixty members, with forty that attend weekly. We offer free group lessons to all Duquesne students, regardless of their prior dance experience. This social and physical activity has fostered many relationships between the members of our community.
How does this club support the students at Duquesne?
- Our lessons are free to students
- It is a safe place to make new friends
- Students can pursue a new creative outlet
- It has been a source of stress relief
- We lend our talents to service events
- We offer a safe way to connect with the larger Pittsburgh Ballroom Community
