Sheraton North Main Ballroom

“Simply Sherry”, as she likes to be called, is hands down, one of the best female dancers in Chicago Steppin’ in the country. She has a mastery of the fundamentals and an ability to teach that makes anyone comfortable in her presence – but she runs a very tight ship! Her heart is as big as the state of Michigan and we’re honored that she’s returning to offer her services again.

“Welcome to the Steppin’ movement! Let’s get it Houston!”, says Steppin’ B. His ability to make the complex simple and easy to grasp is one of his premiere talents as a dancer and instructor. He keeps his students engaged, he’ll challenge you to elevate your dance and he makes every minute of the workshop fun. We know from experience what Brian offers as we’ve maintained a student/instructor relationship with him for more that 20 years. The structure for the AM online instruction comes directly from the mind of Brian Patterson.
