This is a wonderful little corner of heaven in busy London, just round the corner from Paddington station. My friends and I have truly enjoyed our visits there.
The facilities are state of the art modern with sprung maple floors and all round mirrors. Everything feels so glamorous and light and airey, The team are so very friendly, they make you so welcome. Even if you are a complete beginner you will just have fun learning.
The team use specialist teachers for each class so the standard of teaching is excellent. I tried the ballroom/latin and the pilates and they were both really good.

I started doing Latin American dances in my university's dance club five years ago and have been practicing ever since. The lack of partners has always been a challenge throughout my dance experience. Dancing with professional partners especially helps to improve a lot. It's an opportunity that you can't find in any other group classes in London. Since joining Simply Dancing Partners, everyone has been helpful, supportive, and willing to do what's necessary to enhance my dancing skills. I now look forward to Mondays and highly recommend it— Buse Kabakoğlu

Salsa is quite learnable once the basic timing feels natural. Most beginners are enjoying it within a few classes.
Yes, salsa classes welcome complete beginners and assume no experience. You build up from the simplest steps.
Yes, adults can take up ballet and find it rewarding. Beginner classes are matched to your ability.
There is no age too late for recreational ballet. A suitable class makes it accessible whenever you begin.
Typical basics are the grapevine, step-touch, kick-ball-change, shuffle and a pivot turn. These underpin many beginner dances.
A short dance with repeating steps to each wall is the friendliest starting point. A beginner class can suggest a good one.
