I danced with this school myself in the 80's & 90's and loved it. When we moved back to the area and my daughter wanted to start dancing there was no question where I wanted her to go. She enjoys it immensely, the staff are all so lovely and supportive and I have rediscovered my love of tap and have been welcomed back with open arms.— Emma Ascott

Love it here, great folk teaching great dance at great prices!— Becky Townsend

Frequently Asked Questions

How hard is it to learn salsa?

The basic step is straightforward and most beginners manage it in a single session. Timing, turns and partnerwork take longer but come steadily with practice.

Can a non-dancer learn salsa?

Yes, beginner classes assume no experience, which is how most people arrive. Turning up regularly matters far more than natural ability.

Is it possible to learn ballet as an adult?

Yes, adults often take up ballet later in life for the strength and posture it develops. Adult beginner classes are paced to make starting fresh comfortable.

What age is too late to start ballet?

There is no upper limit for recreational ballet, and people begin at any stage of life. Only professional training has age-sensitive requirements.

What are 5 basic steps in line dancing?

Common steps include the grapevine, the step-touch, the kick-ball-change, the pivot turn and the shuffle. Line dances combine these into repeating sequences.

What is the easiest line dance to learn for beginners?

Line dances with a short, repeating pattern are the easiest to start with. Learn one and the others become much simpler to follow.
