The Ballot
8 CategoriesBest Dance Club / Studio
Las Cruces' only center built entirely around partner dancing — lessons, socials and a floor that's full seven nights a week.
Nominate Sol→ Sports & Rec 02 / Sports & RecBest Dance Studio
Same studio, a different section of the ballot — and the two are tallied separately. If you voted above, come back and do this one too.
Nominate Sol→ 03 / CommunityBest Local Event
Every Other Friday Night. The recurring social that turns the whole city loose on one floor — no partner, no experience, no cover for first-timers.
Nominate Sol→ Only one in the U.S. 04 / EducationBest Private School
The Ballroom Dance Teachers Academy is the only state-licensed ballroom dance teacher education program in the United States — and it's here, in Las Cruces.
Nominate Sol→ 05 / VenueBest Entertainment Center
Showcases, competitions and live social dancing — a night out that doesn't involve sitting down.
Nominate Sol→ 06 / NightlifeBest Nightclub
Salsa, bachata, swing and country till late — the dance floor Las Cruces actually shows up for.
Nominate Sol→ 07 / FamilyBest Family Event
Grandparents and grade-schoolers on the same floor. All ages, no partner required, nobody stuck against the wall.
Nominate Sol→ 08 / KidsBest Place for a Kids Birthday
The floor, the music, and an instructor who runs the whole party. Parents get to sit down for once.
