The Children's Museum, at 811 North Carson St., is where Case and Dach jointly instruct almost every Friday night 7-8:30 p.m., teaching two traditional and one "cool" dance pattern each week. Lessons run $8 a single or $15 a couple, while a monthly rate of $30 a single or $55 a couple is offered.

Thursdays, 7-8:30 p.m., Case teaches swing dances like the Lindy at the dance studio above Java Joe's at 319 North Carson Street. Lessons are $8 a person or $15 a couple.
