Whether you are a beginner or intermediate dancer, we always recommend regular attendance. Intermediate dancers attend beginner classes - there is always something new to learn and experienced dancers help beginners.
Repetition & practice really do make a better dancer.
During the last 15 minutes of class beginners can practice while intermediate dancers "Step-up" to an intermediate move.
Class is very beginner-friendly – most of us felt like we had two (or even three) left feet when we started.
Open to all ages, levels of ability, and genders.
Bring a friend, partner, or come by yourself – no dance partner required.
