Frequently Asked Questions

Can you learn to dance without a partner?

Yes. Most of the dancing here is done solo or as part of a group, so no partner is required, which is ideal for children and for party groups alike.

What should I wear to a beginner dance class?

Comfortable clothes you can move freely in and soft, flexible shoes are all that is needed to begin. If a class calls for anything particular, the studio will let you know beforehand.

How much does a dance class usually cost?

Prices depend on the type of class and whether it is a regular session or a group booking like a hen party. Get in touch with Emma and the team for current rates.

Which dance is best for beginners?

For beginners, a fun and energetic style with simple repeating steps works well, as it builds confidence quickly. The teachers will match the dance to the age and interests of whoever is taking part.

What is the best dance to start as an adult?

For adults, especially in a group setting, an upbeat choreographed routine is a great starting point because it is sociable and easy to follow. The team can tailor the session to your group's ability.

Is dancing good for heart failure?

Light dancing can be an enjoyable, gentle way to stay active, but anyone with a heart condition should check with their doctor first. The class can then be kept at a comfortable intensity.
