Ballroom Dancing Classes
Ballroom dancing classes are a great way to learn a new skill whilst keeping fit, meeting new people, and socialising with friends.
Classes run weekly on Thursdays (term time only) but Kylie will begin teaching a new dance on the first Thursday of every month, alternating between Ballroom and Latin American style. If you are new to the group and would like to join, this is the best time to start!
Which dance class is best for you?
Beginner
Ideal for those who are completely new to ballroom dancing.
There are 8 beginner level dances to learn and most people find that they complete these in approximately a year. You then have the option to move to improver level sessions or some people prefer to remain in the beginner class and recap past dances.
Improver
Up to and including a Silver medal standard.
At improver level you can expect to cover slightly more challenging steps and sequences. Ballroom dances will cover a combination of steps allowing you to move around the floor more confidently and with a better awareness of space and direction. Latin dances at this level will contain faster moves and more complex turns.
Advanced
Up to and including Gold medal standard.
Ballroom dancing experience and an understanding of all basic moves is recommended for this level. At Gold medal standard, the choreography and the timing covered at this level is much more challenging. Partners’ steps can often be quite different requiring a stronger lead. In Latin dances, more demanding solo moves are covered.
