ST. CLOUD -- If you're looking for a place to bust a move, look no further than the Friday night dance parties at Studio Jeff.

Studio Jeff in Downtown St. Cloud has become a hot spot for swing, tango and other partner dancing on Friday nights.

Owner, Jeff Ringer says he's seen an increase in interest from people wanting to learn different dance styles since the premiere of the dance competition show Dancing With the Stars.

Ringer is a dance instructor at St. Cloud State University and previously taught dance at Arthur Murray Dance.

Studio Jeff instructors introduce a new dance every few weeks. They teach the same style three weeks in a row so people have time to learn the routine. Directly following the lesson there's a dance party.

Ringer says the dance party is for beginners and seasoned pros alike because everybody helps everybody.

You are encouraged to branch out and dance with different partners, but you're not required to.
