Administrative Assistant (Front Desk)at Topline Dance Hall

Locations: San Rafael, CA

Company Overview:

Slow Fox Dance Halls are fun, community-focused dance studios and venues for adults and teenagers in the northern Bay Area. At Slow Fox, we believe that anyone, from any walk of life, can benefit from dance. We specialize in partnered dances, including the social dances (dances still alive in the community, such as salsa, tango, country, and swing), and ballroom dances (more technical, structured partnered dances such as waltz, rumba, and foxtrot), but beyond that we specialize in spreading the positive impact of social dancing to the widest possible audience. Our studios work within the community to promote dance opportunities, such as performances, graduations, parties, and competitions, as well as to create personalized programs to cater to each individual dancer’s goals. We are a people-focused company, and value our personal relationships with our clients.
