Check out the website at www.centuryballroom.com There is a small cover charge, but it is worth it. There is also a restaurant and dance classes.

I have to admit I'm biased -- I've been taking classes with Hallie Kuperman every couple of years since before she even owned the Century Ballroom. But to me it is the best place in Seattle to go for a romantic evening out. What could be better than having a nice dinner (the menu is limited, but everything I've had has been very good), white tablecloths and all, then twirling 'round the floor with your girl (or guy) in your arms?
Despite being a lesbian-owned business on Capitol Hill, the Century is dominated most evenings by hetero couples. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I am very happy that Hallie recently added gay nights to the schedule. OutDancing happens on the third and fourth Friday of every month, and features a wide variety of dance music, from salsa and swing to two-step and disco. The crowd tends to be mostly women (including a lot of familiar faces from the Timberline, may it rest in peace), but there are several male regulars as well. There are plenty of people to fill the room with energy, but it is not nearly as crowded and sweaty as the popular salsa nights.
Don't know how to swing? Scared by salsa? Not to fear. There are classes before each dance, as well as a regular schedule of classes that meet several weeks in a row, and the instructors are great.

I've been Salsa dancing here lots, and it's always crowded and the music is LOUD, but there are dancers of all levels and you can really dance the night away. The lesson before the dance is a nice warm up and lets you scout out partners beforehand. Be ready to SWEAT, it's hot! Oh, there's a bar, but I don't know how anyone can dance and drink -- go for the overpriced water (did I mention you SWEAT!)

Overall, I had a great experience at the Ballroom. We saw a live show there and had a fun time listening / dancing the night away. The dinner served prior to the show was nice, nothing fancy – but okay. I think the night depends greatly on the show, but we saw Bob Schneider and had a wonderful evening.
A good date as well, a nice place with a little different than normal of a setting.

Last summer I was asked to be the best man for my best friends wedding. And because I'm such a good friend I agreed to accompany him to ballroom dance lessons. I was very nervous going to my first lesson. When I dance it looks like I'm in pain. The staff did an excellent job of putting me at ease and not making me feel like an ass. I may not be Fred Astaire, but I'm on my way. Great prices here, too.
