Blue Collar Ballroom at Inspire Dance Centre. (Photo credit: Madison Fender)

In a cozy top-floor studio at Inspire Dance Centre in the Feather Hill Complex in Southold, amid the space’s rustic exposed wooden beams adorned with strings of twinkling fairy lights, Alexandra Binder’s students sway to the beat of cha-cha. They aren’t gussied up in glittery “Dancing with the Stars” costumes or vintage Fred Astaire tuxes; they’re dressed in everyday attire, like hoodies and baseball caps, but as students of Binder’s dance-is-for-all classes at Blue Collar Ballroom, they’re ready for anything. 

Listen to “Steel toe meets heel-toe at Blue Collar Ballroom” by Victoria Caruso on the latest episode of the Northforker Stories podcast.
