Many years ago, our local dance had a teaching session before the dance started, and we
charged less for people who arrived in that first half hour to encourage everyone to do
so. We were also explicit (and I think this made a bigger difference) that we were doing
that to encourage experienced dancers, as well as newcomers, to be there for the teaching
so the experienced folks could help.

Does your dance group offer lessons before the actual dancing begins? We offer a half
hour lesson (though many folks arrive late and miss some stuff) at the beginning of the
dance to teach basic moves.
