‼️EXCITING NEWS‼️ We have now reached the final stage of our Roadmap which means we will be opening without restrictions. Hooray! Final stage of the Roadmap…what is changing? HAND SANITISERS - Please continue to use sanitiser stations on arrival and during your time at the studio. MASKS - You are no longer legally required to wear masks moving around the studio, however you are welcome to continue do so if you wish. TRACK & TRACE - Checking in using the NHS App is still encouraged, however you will no longer be required to use the sign in book on arrival. Our online booking system also provides us with contact details for each student, should we need to contact you regarding a positive COVID test. BOOKINGS - Online bookings for classes is required. We will continue to limit the numbers so to avoid disappointment and control numbers, we ask you to book in advance. SOCIAL DISTANCING - This is no longer a legal requirement, however to minimise unnecessary risk, we ask you to be mindful and considerate of others, particularly if they choose to maintain distance. We do still ask that if you do have Covid symptoms or are feeling unwell not to come to the studio. We wish to express a massive thank you to everyone who has followed our guidelines over the past 18 months. We look forward to seeing you all in the studio!

FAQs

What is the difference between you and the rest of the dance studios?

The short answer is: the level of sophistication. In our classes, the students develop skills and learn not how to be a dancer but how to be a desirable social dancer and that's a big difference. Not only that but to be such in every country and on every social dance floor.

How important social dance is?

Well, social dance is basically about your physical and mental health and your joy and happiness. So, how important are they to you is the only correct answer.

How fast should I expect to learn to dance?

It really depends on where you are starting from and your physical coordination and musicality, it may take a little while if you're starting from scratch. However, if not you can expect to be ready in 4 weeks and if you already dance another style and know the fundamentals it could be as little as one week. These estimates are based on our experience over the years. The other factor is your level of dedication and the amount of time you dedicate to it. If you need to learn quickly for a specific occasion, we recommend our private lessons as the fastest way of learning to dance.

I think I'm Intermediate or advanced level - can I come just to practice?

Certainly, yes. However, if you're coming from another dance studio we recommend you take at least two of our beginner's classes first to gain some of the fundamental knowledge which would be helpful to have in the more advanced classes.

Does it matter how often am I attending the classes?

Yes, it does. Missing a class extends your learning curve so it's recommended not to. However, if it happens do not worry too much - you will catch-up eventually.

We do have more answers on the FAQ page on our website.
