About Pure Dance & Fitsteps – Dance Fitness Classes

Virginia leads the teaching with a knack for getting even the most reluctant movers around the floor with a bit of style. She is supported by an assistant, and the small-group feel keeps the atmosphere friendly. Whether the goal is fitness, confidence or preparing for a special occasion, the coaching adapts to the person in front of her.

Classes & Dance Styles

The offering spans dance-fitness classes that keep you active while you learn, alongside private lessons for anyone with a specific target in mind, such as feeling ready for a big event. Ballroom styles like the waltz feature in the one-to-one work, taught step by step so first-timers can build a routine of their own. Group sessions lean into the fitness side, combining familiar dance moves with an energising pace. Couples and solo dancers alike are catered for, with the teaching tailored to whatever you want to achieve.

What to Expect on Your First Visit

Wear comfortable activewear and supportive trainers, since the fitness-based sessions keep you moving throughout. Bring some water and arrive a few minutes early to settle in. If you have a particular occasion or goal, mention it beforehand so the class or lesson can be shaped around it.

The classes serve a friendly local community of dancers who value a relaxed, sociable environment over anything competitive.

What Dancers Say About Pure Dance & Fitsteps – Dance Fitness Classes

5/5 from 2 Google reviews.

What can I say Virginia can achieve miracles! In just 5 one to one lessons she managed to get me, a rigid builder to move around the dance floor with style. I learnt to Waltz and create my own dance ahead of a grand ball. With a tight deadline and no time to waste she quickly understood how I learnt and applied this with affect and enthusiasm. I honestly can’t thank her enough. I highly recommend Pure Dance to anyone wanting to learn.

My partner and I started about 6 months ago. Complete beginners with four left feet. Always fun and never too serious but learning lots at the same time. Virginia is a great teacher as is her super side kick Tilly. A really nice group of fellow dancers so don't worry just come along.— Clive Holmes

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you learn to dance without a partner?

Yes, you can absolutely learn without a partner, and the dance-fitness sessions here need no partner at all. Even ballroom basics can be introduced solo in a one-to-one lesson before you dance with anyone else.

What should I wear to a beginner dance class?

For fitness-based dance sessions, comfortable activewear and supportive trainers work best. Choose clothing you can move freely in, and bring water to stay hydrated through the more energetic parts.

How much does a dance class usually cost?

Prices vary depending on whether you attend a group class or book private tuition, so it is best to ask directly for current rates. One-to-one lessons typically cost more than group sessions because the attention is entirely yours.

Which dance is best for beginners?

Beginners often do well with dance-fitness classes or a straightforward ballroom style like the waltz, both of which build confidence gently. The best choice really depends on whether you are after fitness, technique or a bit of both.

What is the best dance to start as an adult?

Adults frequently start with something sociable and low-pressure, whether that is a dance-fitness class or a simple ballroom step. Beginning with a style that matches your goal keeps the experience enjoyable from the outset.

Is dancing good for heart failure?

Gentle dancing can be a pleasant form of light exercise for many people, but anyone with a heart condition should check with their doctor first. A medical professional can advise on a safe level of activity for your circumstances.
