Overall, an extremely well organised, fun, and stimulating place to learn to dance – would highly recommend.— Emma Ward

I've been taking Ballroom and Latin dance classes at Dance Club LA for over 4 years and I've loved every minute of it. Sessions are fun for all as well as being packed with opportunity for the serious dancer to develop their technique. It’s been a great way to keep fit & make friends. The social dances are well organised and are suited to all abilities. Highly recommended!— Tracy Thurgood

Great lessons on a huge floor with really high quality instruction has helped us immensely to improve our dancing. It is always challenging and fun. Linda & Richard work hard to communicate to all the class how dance techniques can be improved. Geof as M/C at the the monthly Saturday dances makes the organisation seem effortless whilst posting some great photographs.— Philip Cairncross

This is a wonderful dance club. The teaching is exceptional. You won't find better. There is always a warm welcome to all levels. It is a wonderful place to learn to dance, to make news friends and have a lovely social life. The monthly Saturday dances are brilliant. If you want to learn to dance or just enjoy dancing, don't go anywhere else!— Ann Sharifi

Frequently Asked Questions

How hard is it to learn salsa?

Salsa's basic step is easy to pick up, so most beginners dance a pattern within a lesson or two. Turns and speed take more practice, but they develop steadily over time.

Can a non-dancer learn salsa?

Yes, salsa welcomes complete beginners and classes assume no prior experience. Regular attendance matters far more than any natural rhythm.

Is it possible to learn ballet as an adult?

Yes, many adults start ballet through beginner classes made for grown-ups. It rewards patience and is good for posture, though this club specialises in ballroom and Latin.

What age is too late to start ballet?

No age is too late to start ballet for enjoyment and fitness. Only a professional career really depends on an early start.

What are 5 basic steps in line dancing?

Five common moves are the grapevine, step-touch, kick-ball-change, pivot turn and shuffle. They form the basis of most beginner line dances.

What is the easiest line dance to learn for beginners?

Short routines that repeat a single sequence are the easiest to start with. Ask a line-dance class which beginner dances they teach first.
