What you will learn
In each class you will work on one standard Ballroom and one Latin American dance
with lots of time to practice what you have learned.You will learn how to recognize dances by listening to the
rhythm of the music. The basic patterns and sequences will get you started so that you will feel confident to use
them in a social situation. When you have mastered the material covered in the Beginners classes, you will be ready
to move to Improvers.
It is an excellent idea to attend classes with a dance partner so that you can
practice your steps in between lessons, but it is not essential in some classes. The classes are
not large, so that you are assured of lots of attention and support from your instructor.
The DanceSport styles that you will learn include: Modern Waltz, Slow Foxtrot,
Quickstep, Cha Cha, Rumba and Jive. In addition to these dances you will learn Slow Rhythm (Social
Foxtrot) which is a slower dance developed from the Quickstep and Social Tango, a dance performed in sequences to
get you moving to this dramatic music. Samba, Tango and Viennese Waltz are added when you progress to Intermediate
level and above.
Sequence dances are taught for fun. These dances move in an anticlockwise
direction around the dance floor, are easy to learn and lots of fun especially when performed with a crowd of
people on one of the Social nights.
Please phone Kim if you would like to give some of
her "Learn to Dance" flyers to your friends.
