A dance class can teach anyone to move with grace through bee attacks, while getting served in front of a blind date, or during mega-prom. Arm yourself against these utterly unavoidable occurrences with today's Groupon: for $30, you get a five-class dance card at Rhythms & Soul Dance Studio in Forest Hills (a $71.25 value).

With more than 30 toe-tapping tutorials offered each week, Rhythms & Soul Dance Studio instructs eager pupils in the myriad languages of bodily grace and rhythm. Students can mix and match styles such as the hustle, hip-hop, belly dance, and Zumba for fitness leaners. During a social dance class, steppers perfect their waltzing technique and learn to replace upright broomsticks with human partners, who are much better for dusting chandeliers. A salsa lesson floods limbs with the hypnotic meters of Latin music, creating a squad of club-ready hip-shakers. Each one-hour session is led by a member of Rhythms and Soul’s phalanx of professional coryphées, who give students individual attention while maintaining a pressure-free, noncompetitive atmosphere. Check the Forest Hill calendar for the full list of classes and prepare to resist the lure of the beat no more.
