Frequently Asked Questions

What are 5 basic steps in line dancing?

Line dancing typically uses the grapevine, shuffle, kick-ball-change, pivot turn and basic walks. This differs from ballet, which is built on positions and turnout. Riverside focuses on the latter.

What is the easiest line dance to learn for beginners?

Short, repetitive dances are the gentlest start in line dancing. For ballet, as taught here, beginners instead start with the basic positions and posture. Both begin simply under good teaching.

Can you learn to dance without a partner?

Yes, ballet is danced individually, so no partner is needed to learn. Many styles, from ballet to line dancing, are practised solo or in a group. You can simply join on your own.

What should I wear to a beginner dance class?

For ballet, appropriate dancewear and soft ballet shoes are usual, allowing free movement and clean lines. Other styles have their own requirements. Check with the school if you are unsure what to bring.

How much does a dance class usually cost?

Fees depend on the style, session length and how you pay. Ballet schools often charge per term or in blocks. Contact the school directly for current prices.

Which dance is best for beginners?

Ballet is a popular foundation because it builds posture and coordination that carry into other styles. Solo styles like line dancing are also easy to start. The best choice depends on what appeals to you most.
