Frequently Asked Questions

How do you start ballroom dancing?

The simplest way to begin is to join a beginners' session where an instructor introduces the basic hold, posture and a couple of straightforward steps. From there you build up gradually, one dance at a time, without needing any prior experience.

What ballroom dance to learn first?

Many people start with the waltz, as its steady rhythm and flowing steps are forgiving for newcomers. The teacher can guide you towards whichever dance best matches your confidence early on.

Can you learn to dance without a partner?

Yes, plenty of people come along on their own and take part perfectly well. Steps can be practised solo and partners are often rotated so everyone gets involved.

What should I wear to a beginner dance class?

Comfortable clothing that lets you move easily is all you need, together with smooth-soled shoes that won't stick to the floor. There is no expectation to dress up for your first visit.

How much does a dance class usually cost?

Prices vary depending on whether you attend group sessions or private tuition. It is best to contact Ellie directly for current rates and any block-booking options.

Which dance is best for beginners?

Gentler ballroom dances such as the waltz tend to suit beginners because the timing is easy to feel. The instructor will point you towards a first dance that fits your pace.
