About Top Hat Ballroom Dance Studio

Top Hat Ballroom Dance Studio, located in Goldsboro, North Carolina, has been a vibrant hub for dance education since its establishment by the Heritage Dance Foundation in 1992. Specializing in ballroom dancing, the studio fosters a love for both competitive and social styles. Our dedicated instructors, Carl (Bubba) & Joy Williams and Marty & Jo Ann Barbour, bring extensive experience to private and group classes, alongside choreography for competitions, weddings, and cotillions. Students can progress through structured levels including Social Ease, Bronze, Silver, and Gold, building confidence and mastering intricate patterns. Beyond the core ballroom curriculum, Top Hat embraces lively social dances such as Salsa and Bachata. A dedicated youth program was introduced in the fall of 2012, ensuring dancers of all ages can explore their passion for movement. The studio actively promotes practice through weekly Friday night parties featuring a 'mini' lesson on a featured dance. As a cornerstone of the non-profit Heritage Dance Foundation, Top Hat supports the performing arts through scholarships and community productions, cultivating excellence across various dance disciplines. DanceWeek, an electronic platform managed by Ms. Charlee Anne Thomas with guidance from Charles S. Zwerling, MD, further promotes ballroom dancing and shares industry news, contributing to the elevation of standards in competitive ballroom dancing.
