How does a group class work?

Group classes focus on the introduction to basic steps for a range of Ballroom and Latin dances over a series of 6 classes. In each successive class we build on materials learned in the previous class and learn new steps. Class topics (for example: choreography) are pre-determined for each lesson, and are appropriate to that lesson's experience level. We cover the materials at the average learning rate of the lesson. We vary choreography in most 6 week series, to give students a wide variety of patterns and help them feel comfortable in the dance styles they choose to learn.

We offer beginning, intermediate, and advanced level group classes. If you are unsure which lesson you "belong" in, ask your teacher. As a general rule, students take beginning level classes until they feel 'bored,' then move to intermediate level classes.
