Meet Your Buckhead
Foxtrot Instructors

At Dance With Me Buckhead, we teach American Style Foxtrot, the version most widely danced at social events across the United States. 

American Style is slightly more relaxed in frame and allows for more creative expression and partner interaction, making it the perfect choice for social dancing in Atlanta. International Style foxtrot, used in competitive ballroom, is more structured and is also available for students who choose to pursue competition.

The health benefits of learning foxtrot are real, too. Studies show that social dancing improves balance, cardiovascular health, memory, and mental well-being — all while being genuinely fun. It’s exercise that never feels like exercise.

DANCE INSTRUCTOR

Amanda Merritt

Amanda started dancing at the early age of 2. She grew up in the DFW area where she trained and competed in styles such as ballet, jazz, tap, hip hop, and contemporary. Throughout the years she was awarded several high-scoring solo awards, scholarships, and opportunities to train with the industry’s top teachers and performers. Amanda began her ballroom training at age 16 and fell in love with it immediately. She started as an amateur and then quickly moved her way up to doing it professionally. Amanda and her dance partner, Eyne, compete together in the professional circuit and frequently participate in competitions nationwide. Amanda has always had a passion for teaching. At age 13 she began teaching children at her home studio. Soon after, she started choreographing solo routines, group numbers, and became director of the Performance Team.

All of those years have prepared her for where she is at now. Amanda began teaching at Dance With Me in July of 2022 and has enjoyed every minute of it. Whether it be kids or adults, she loves sharing her passion and knowledge with her students. Amanda hopes to continue dancing and teaching for as long as possible!

Dance Instructor

Vlad Pop

Originally from Romania, Vlad started his ballroom dancing journey in 2005. He started with International Ballroom and Latin style dances and in a few years he specialized in training and competing exclusively in Latin. Later in his competitive career he had to uproot himself to pursue higher level training abroad, especially in Hungary, where he was trained by the Professional Latin World Champions. His dancing has taken him to many corners of the world, including India, Russia and Ukraine. Apart from a successful career in Competitive Latin Dancesport, he has also competed internationally in Showdance together with his partner Jhinuk, obtaining the World Championship Title of 2023 in IDO Showdance. His main desire is to be able to bring the best out of all the students that he has the opportunity to work with and make them achieve more than they ever thought they could.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Foxtrot Classes in Atlanta

Not at all! Many of our students take lessons solo. During private lessons, your instructor will be your dedicated partner. In group classes, we frequently rotate partners so everyone gets to dance.

The Foxtrot is actually one of the best dances for beginners! The basic timing (slow, slow, quick, quick) is easy to pick up, and the walking steps feel very natural. Our instructors excel at breaking down the movements so anyone can learn.

In American Smooth, dancers can break their “frame” (open up and dance apart from one another), allowing for dramatic spins, dips, and theatrical movements. International Standard requires dancers to remain in a closed hold for the entire dance. We teach both, but generally start beginners with the versatile American Smooth style.

At Dance With Me Buckhead, group foxtrot classes start with a $49 intro special.

Wear something comfortable that allows you to move freely. Business casual or neat everyday attire is perfect. For shoes, we recommend comfortable, secure footwear with a smooth sole (avoid flip-flops or heavy work boots).
