Bridgerton Ball

Join us for an evening of regency elegance at the Bridgerton Ball, where we’ll bring to life the charm and refinement of the Bridgerton era! This event offers a unique combination of Waltz and quadrille instruction, and a taste of regency-era etiquette.

Event Highlights:

Waltz Choreography: Begin the night by learning a special waltz choreography, designed for dancers of all levels. We’ll work together to create a beautiful group routine, which we’ll record and share with you. This is a rare chance to perform a coordinated waltz as a group and capture the elegance on film.

Quadrille Instruction: Explore the quadrille, a lively and elegant group dance that was a centerpiece of 18th and 19th-century ballroom culture. Performed in sets of four couples, the quadrille is a dynamic sequence of intricate figures and patterns. Dancers weave through graceful formations, exchanging partners, curtsying, and bowing, all in perfect synchronization. It’s a bit like a formal, elegant precursor to square dancing, filled with energy, charm, and interaction. Our instructors will guide you through each movement, ensuring that everyone can enjoy this delightful and social dance.

Etiquette & Formal Manners: Throughout the evening, we’ll touch on essential regency-era etiquette, so you can move with grace and confidence, whether you’re dancing or mingling.

“Debutante” Presentation: Enjoy a quasi-debutante presentation, where select dancers will showcase the refinement of this timeless tradition and other dances.

A Further Word On Attire:

Dress to impress in regency-inspired attire or formal wear. Think elegant, floor-length gowns, and tailored suits or tuxedos. For those who want to fully embrace the Bridgerton theme, regency dresses with empire waistlines, flowing fabrics, gloves, and delicate accessories will capture the look of the era. The charm of the period is also reflected with tailcoats, waistcoats, cravats, and polished shoes.

Formal attire is always a suitable option if regency isn’t your style. Traditional evening gowns or cocktail dresses work beautifully, or black tie or sharp suits. The goal is to create a night of timeless elegance, whether you’re dressed for a modern ballroom or a scene from Bridgerton.
