Dance can express what words cannot, whether it's the triumphant joy in a football player's posttouchdown pirouette or the passionate tango used to notify roommates that the basement is flooding. Transmit tidings with twinkling toes thanks to today’s Groupon: for $29, you get either a five-class pass to group ballroom classes or one private ballroom class for two at DF Dance Studio (a $60 value).

DF Dance Studio houses a battalion of seasoned dance warriors, whose twinkle-toed tutorials helped win the title of Best Social Dance Studio in Utah's Best of State 2010. A Silver punch card five-class pass allows dancers of all levels to try out ballroom in the 5,000-square-foot studio space, complete with wooden floors, disco lights, and a posse of robot backup dancers. Partners are not required for the 55-minute sessions, which occur weekly in the evenings. Alternatively, the one-hour private lesson takes place at two students' preferred time and location, allowing them to shimmy in the comfort of their home or strobe-lit bomb shelter.
