BEGINNERS
We would like to invite you to an exciting journey through the Latin and Ballroom dances and the Jive. Learn to dance in an easy and joyful way.
The Monday Six Weeks Courses offer you an 'Introduction to Latin & Ballroom' for Beginners, in two parts, A and B. The Three Week Courses focus on one or two dances.
The dances in Six Weeks Part A:
Cha Cha Cha, Waltz,
Rumba, Tango
The dances in Six Weeks Part B:
Jive, Viennese Waltz, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Merengue
Each Monday beginners course has a level 1 for absolute beginners and a level 2 for beginners who are ready to progress. So you could attend a certain course on level 1 and soon on level 2.
Next classes for Beginners 1 & 2:
-
Introduction to Latin & Ballroom, Part A (6 weeks) 9 May - 13 June
-
Jive (3 weeks)
20 June – 04 July
-
Cha Cha Cha & Rumba
(3 weeks)
11 – 25 July
-
Introduction to Latin & Ballroom, Part B (6 weeks) 5 September - 10 October
How to progress
In the first year of your dancing you learn the mayor dances, build up a broader knowledge of the basic steps, develop muscle memory and confidence. A regular, preferably weekly dance schedule and any practice helps. After attending part A and B we recommend to continue to attend the Monday Courses to keep practicing and to add the Wednesday Weekly Drop-In Classes with Social > as often as you can. The teachers are happy to discuss when it's a good time for you to move up to the Improvers level where we focus for 4 weeks on one dance. Our London Ballroom Fever parties > are a great place to put into practice what you've learnt and mix with dancers of all levels.
Try first, then decide
If you want to try a class (only possible for week one of all the three, four or six weeks of a class), book a Drop-In ticket. If you like the class, you could upgrade by paying the difference to the full class price. Just bring your credit card.

Repeat your basics, learn new steps and a useful routine within 3 weeks and have the 4th week for repetition & improvement only. Frequent practice with music.

Choose the level:
-
Beginners 1: Absolute Beginners, first Basic steps.
-
Beginner 2: You've learned the very first Basics steps of the dances before (maybe have attended the Beginners 1 class with these dances) and are now ready to learn more steps. You can change back and forth between Beginners 1 & 2 depending on the dance, as these levels are taught at the same time. Pre-Bronze figures.
-
Improvers: Students who have been dancing that dance for approximately one year. Pre-Bronze and Bronze figures.
-
Intermediate: Students who have been dancing that dance at least for two to three years. Bronze and Silver figures.
-
Advanced: Students who have been learning at least for four to five years, know the basics up to Silver well and have developed their technique sufficiently. Silver, Gold and Goldstar figures.
If you can't make one class
for whatever reason, you can attend the live-streaming of the class online (stuck at the office or at home, have to self-isolate, etc.). Let us know latest 2 hours before the class.
