StarDancer got its roots and name from a saying... “If you have the desire to dance, you too can become a star dancer! Even if you’ve never danced before”. Age is no factor! Being handicap is no factor! Anyone can dance! You just need encouragement & confidence. The idea, of “StarDancer”, started in the summer of 1978, trying to find a catchy name for a business card which in its form appeared as “Star Master”. This came from Stan’s mother who went to a print shop and had business cards printed up for Stan’s Birthday. “To my surprise I opened up the box to read the cards. On the cards at the top was written “Star Master Dancer”. The Second line said “Dance Master and Instructor”. At the time it seemed catchy and the business took off. Two years later, working two jobs, trying to teach workshops in night clubs and stay afloat, I found myself working for a prominent dance studio. Then one day, working for the same studio at a dance competition, an older dance master, after watching me dance with my students, politely said to me with encouraging words, “if you have the desire to dance, you too can become a star dancer”. At that moment in time the words that came from the kind gentleman did not even occur to me what was to become later. A few years went by and the words “star dancer” came to me again and inspired me to restart my dance business again. With the help of Linda Landwehr, we both started out of a basement studio and called it “Social Dance”. This came about by posting flyers in grocery stores with the words “Social Dance Tonight”. The words were a big eye catcher on the front of the flyers and it seemed to work. A few months later we would be the first in the top 10 on the Internet called “Social Dance”. This was from the help of my brother Anton who passed away later. This also lead us to teach in the St. Charles area and finally the St. Charles Community College in which we teach there today. Later, after being inspired with the meaning and phrase, “you can be a star dancer too”, we changed our dance company name to “StarDancer” along with our domain name. After having the success of being champion dancers and winning top teachers awards Linda and I both believe, after seeing our own students perform and dance on the dance floor, that they are all “Star Dancers”. You can see the desire in their faces, the eagerness of learning and the confidence they show when they enter the dance floor. After teaching thousands of students each year it is rewarding and an honor to own and operate such a business. The rest is history.
The Type of dance classes vary through out the week. They are arranged by the style of dance, the level of the student and the type of dance to choose from..

Professional Dance Lessons & Planning
Reassuring you that your private dance instructions will go smooth, we will intelligently plan, with you, a dance program that suits your dancing needs. In other words, get you off to a good start towards your original dance goal. Our Dance Step Programs are Easy, Fun and anyone can do them. This separates us from our competition which will try to teach you competition steps only, and try to sell you on going to competition claiming that competition will make you a better social dancer taking you through hours of endless and costly dance lessons.
Competition Offers Too High A Price
After being in the dance business over 30 years we can tell you that promises like that can’t be kept and are untrue in many cases and costly over time. After all who do you think is going to pay for that expensive Twenty Four Thousand Dollar Costume and the Trips, Hotels, Food, Airfare, Coaching Lessons with so called pro’s you don’t even know? For more Information go to our article “before taking dance classes.”
Our Private Lessons Beat The Competition
Rest assure, our dance prices are reasonable and Low cost too! We can plan, with you, any dance program that will fit your dancing needs, budget and lifestyle. And we give Discounts to all Enrolled Students, As Much as $10 Off Regular Private Dance Lessons. We guarantee all our Private Lesson Prices will beat the competition. If Not - We Will Match The Price. (Based on Certified Professional Dancers & Dance Studio’s Not on Someone that claims to be knowledgeable in the field of Ballroom Dance or any other Dance Form).(What this simply means is that there has to be proof of the teachers ability based on professionalism, experience and knowledge in our business. That takes sometimes 10 years training in a dance studio under the guidance of a dance master along with a lot of research and development. For too many years we have seen dancers become teachers after taking a few lessons. We consider them student-teachers that didn’t finish their programs, Not Teachers of Dance. They Are Not in Our Rankings).
