Boardman High School will host March Ballroom Madness, free ballroom dance lessons for area high school students, sponsored by USA Dance. Lessons will take place March 5, 12, 19 and 26.

Advance registration is required. Forms are available at high school offices or can be downloaded from the USA Dance Youngstown Warren Chapter 2015 website, www.usadance2015.com. Class size is limited to the first 100 couples who mail in their signed registration forms.

Boardman High School has partnered with USA Dance volunteers to help area high school students learn the ballroom dances they have been seeing on television. Learn such dances as cha-cha, salsa, rumba, East Coast swing, waltz, fox-trot, tango and hustle.

Participants must be current Mahoning, Columbiana or Trumbull county high school students.
