ABOUT US
Lafayette Dance Nights !
Welcome to Lafayette Dance Nights, where the joy of movement brings people together! We host monthly social dances in Lafayette, Louisiana, designed for everyone—no experience, partner, or perfect steps required.
Our mission is simple: to create a welcoming, inclusive community where people of all ages, backgrounds, and identities can connect through dance. Here, fun matters more than perfection, and kindness always comes before competition.Whether you’re taking your very first steps or gliding with ease, you’ll find encouragement, respect, and plenty of friendly faces. Together, we build confidence, spark friendships, and share a joy that lingers long after the music fades.
At Lafayette Dance Nights, dance isn’t just about steps—it’s about laughter, connection, and the rhythm of community.

Marcus Bebee
Dance Instructor
Marcus began his dance career at the age of 12 when his mother enrolled him in a local dance class. His natural abilities were prominent enough that both his parents thought he would be interested at competing and at 15 he entered the world circuit in the Country/Western Ballroom genre. His love for dance and desire to learn has only grown from those small beginnings. At 18 he began his teaching career and branched out into the American and Latin Ballroom world as well as ballet, studying with some of the top professionals available to him. Since then, he has helped start the local Mad Hot Ballroom competition in 2009 that benefits the Lake Charles Whistlestop and Dancing Classrooms in schools as well as the charity “One Night” dance event and has worked with multiple competitive dance couples and those who just want to learn for fun. He has performed with Sarah Jones Ballet, Lake Charles Dance Academy in an American in Paris, Team Bum and countless variety shows. Having taken a step back from competing, he still teaches as often as possible alongside his wife Morgan. He is also the producer and founder of Spirit Guides, a local paranormal investigation YouTube series where he serves as the lead investigator and is a published author with his first book “Haunted Lake Charles, Through the eyes of a Lead Paranormal Investigator”.
