Pamela and Jeff Johnson are the aspiring choreographed ballroom dancers and instructors of Rapid Ballroom, which they founded in 2014. Each hailing from an artistic stock bring not only a background in dance and teaching but an undeniable love and insight to their classes which allows students to progress comfortably and rapidly. At a young age Pamela began taking lessons in ballet and tap. Later on she added modern, jazz and clogging to her studies. For many years she taught dance at the Myles Reif Performing Arts Center in Grand Rapids, Minnesota. Jeffs parents were beautiful dancers who cultivated a love for dance in their children. Many nights, back on the farm in northern Minnesota, you could find the Johnsons rolling back the living room rug and dancing to the Lawrence Welk show. Jeff and Pamela have taken private ballroom lessons with Paul Botes of American Classic Ballroom and Rea Lyons of Superior Ballroom. Their most recent choreography includes "Let's Get Away From It All", "If I Ain't Got You", "I Can Love You Like That" and "When We're Dancing". They are members of Roundalab, ICBDA, Round Dance Council of Florida and Minnesota Round Dance Council. Pamela and Jeff recently retired from teaching school in northern Minnesota and are spending the winters in central Florida. In January 2018 they began teaching classes for beginners through phase 4 at the Stardust Dance Center in Plant City under the direction of Curt and Tammy Worlock. They continue to teach their classes in Minnesota during the spring and fall months.
