Our next Saturday Night Dance is 19 December --- Don't miss a good night of Dancing
Monday night classes are suitable for intermediate and advanced dancers. Those attending should have a basic knowledge of steps such as natural turns, chasses and lock steps. Two dances are taught in detail each night.
We start with an intermediate level dance and then an advanced dance. This allows for easy progression through the levels as you gain confidence. During the class evenings you will have the chance to practice other dances. Wednesday classes are suitable for beginners and intermediate dancers. Classes commence with some simple progressive dances to allow those who have never danced before to get the feel of moving to the music. Two dances chosen to help promote good basic dance skills are then taught in detail. It usually takes 6 to 8 nights to achieve these skills. Don't be discouraged after one or two classes. MEDAL CLASSES are conducted throughout the year. At least two different levels or styles are in progress at any one time. Unlike our social classes, medal classes run for a specific period of time. Some people attend the medal classes to improve their dancing without intending to take the test at the conclusion of the course.
PRIVATE/INDIVIDUAL TUITION is an excellent way of improving all aspects of your dancing and solving specific problems. Most people learn faster as lessons are on a one to one basis. Medal tuition is also available by private lessons. This allows personal training in a different level or style of medal to the classes being conducted at the time.
WEDDING GROUPS often select their music and then have it choreographed to suit the size of the floor at the reception venue. As well as the Bridal dance some other basic steps can also be an advantage.
SOCIAL DANCES are run regularly to allow you to practice the dances you have learnt.
PRACTICE SESSIONS are run regularly for all students. This is an excellent method of reinforcing what has been taught in both social and medal classes.
