Another fantastic venue where you can learn to dance Ceroc and don’t need to take a partner. Teaching excellent and fabulous tea dances. I attended Fresh weekender this year and it was one of the best dance experiences I’ve had. Ceroc friends are friends for life.— susan stewart

I'm really enjoying Ceroc! I was nervous about going on my own, but everyone is so lovely & everyone dances with as many different people as possible so I'm not sitting down for long. I've got new sparkly dance shoes for all the twirls on the dance floor. Jx 😁— Jennifer Jackson

Friendly, enthusiastic team of people whom always go that extra mile to make you feel welcome. One of the friendliest venues in the country for learning to dance. Would highly recommend to all to give it a go and come along to support the team in Perth.— Kevin Langan

What a fab venue! Large dance floor and air conditioned too. Great weekly dance classes, freestyle and weekend events arranged by Ceroc Perth and the teacher / dance company owner Nicola. Great mix of music for everyone.— Robert Suttie

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you start ballroom dancing?

The simplest way in is a beginner-friendly class where the basics are taught step by step. While this venue specialises in Ceroc, a graded social class is a good general starting point for any partner dancing.

What ballroom dance to learn first?

Many beginners start with an easy-going social style before tackling stricter ballroom forms. Ceroc is a popular first partner dance because it is quick to learn and very sociable.

How hard is it to learn salsa?

Salsa takes some practice for the timing, but the basics come quickly with regular classes. Ceroc offers a similarly approachable route into partner dancing if you prefer.

Can a non-dancer learn salsa?

Yes, salsa classes are built for complete beginners. In the same spirit, Ceroc here welcomes people with no dance background at all.

What are 5 basic steps in line dancing?

Line dancing typically uses moves such as the grapevine, step-touch, kicks, turns and forward-and-back steps. Ceroc is a partner dance rather than line dancing, so its moves differ, but both are learned one step at a time.

What is the easiest line dance to learn for beginners?

Short, repetitive line dances are the easiest to begin with. If you are drawn to partner dancing instead, Ceroc's beginner moves are just as accessible.
