Each month we focus on a different solo routine and a different Latin style. We will spend the first half of each month focusing on the steps and teaching the choreography before moving on later in the month to improving technique and refining the details of how to dance this routine with flair and style.
What else do i need to know
Once you’re signed up to a class, what do you need to know to prepare for your first session?
First of all, you'll need to wear appropriate clothing and footwear for dancing. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes that fit securely and do not have too much grip. Plimsolls for example are fine to start with. We do not recommend sandals or flip-flops as they can easily fall off when dancing. If you decide further down the line that you would like to invest in some dance shoes a member of our team can advise on that.
There is no need for formal ballroom shoes at the beginner stage.
When attending our dance classes, we encourage you to wear something that makes you feel comfortable and that also enables you to move freely such as sportswear or loose-fitting clothing. Please feel free to bring a water bottle as well to stay hydrated throughout your class.
