Beginner Classes
|
The Beginner Class is perfect for people who are completely new to Ballroom and Latin dancing or for improvers who want a relaxed fun time dancing. We teach the Waltz, Quickstep, Cha cha cha and Jive regularly, along with workshops throughout the year on other dances. The beginner classes will also introduce you to the timings of each dance, skills in leading and following and position in hold. These classes aim to teach you the basic steps and technique of the dances we teach. If you're very keen on progressing or you have prior dance experience, you can further build on these skills in the Novice class. |

Novice classes
The Novice class is for dancers keen to push themselves.
There is no strict required experience level. If you have prior dance experience then it will help, but if you're fully committed to train regularly and learn, then even complete beginners are most welcome to come. However, if you are a beginner, you will be expected to learn and practice all the routines taught in beginners class to attend this. It is taught by professional teachers. In this class, you will be taught a routine made up of novice (restricted) steps, which are suitable for competing at novice level. More technique will be introduced as well.

Advanced classes
This class is for members who have danced competitively at a non-beginner level in the past, and are committed to regular training. Open (non-restricted) routines will be taught, suitable for competing at Pre-intermediate level and above.
The Advanced class is taught by professional teachers, who will use their vast knowledge to push the members' understanding of Ballroom and Latin and to improve them as dancers. There will be a strong focus on frame, technique and improving partner work to refine what you already should know.
The Advanced class is not for beginners as it relies on the members having good knowledge of Novice steps so that this foundation can be built upon.
