Experience Levels
- Absolute Beginners
-
No prior experience required. Classes start from zero: the basic steps, timing, and vocabulary of the dance, plus core concepts such as posture, weight transfer, and rhythm - and, in partnered styles, an introduction to leading and following. Nothing is assumed, and nothing is skipped.
- Improvers
-
For dancers with a solid understanding of the basics who are ready for a bigger challenge. This class introduces more complex steps, faster combinations, and more detailed routines, with a greater focus on technique, styling, and musicality. You should feel confident with the fundamental steps and be comfortable picking up new combinations at a quicker pace.
