partner dances Argentine
Tango, Salsa, Merengue and Modern Jive fall outside the Ballroom or
Latin categories but also form part of our teaching repertoire. Popular Sequence Dances For everyone wishing to learn dances such as the Rumba One, Mayfair Quickstep, Sally Ann Cha Cha etc we are happy to teach these using private lessons. Private
lessons All of
the above tuition can also be carried out using prebooked private
lessons. These are offered for people who wish to learn to dance
outside of normal classes on a one to one basis e.g. fast track
learning to join established classes, shift workers or for people who
wish to learn a particular dance. They can also be used to learn
extra figures or improve your technique if you already know Ballroom
or Latin dancing. If there
is a group of you who want to learn to dance together we can also
cater for this. Private lesson cancellation policy We recognise that there may be occasions when our pupils may be unable to attend or need to move their Private Lesson Bookings. Although we will endeavour to accommodate your needs, please notify us of your intention 48 hours prior to your arranged lesson so that this can be made available to other people in order to avoid a cancellation fee being charged. Wedding
and Anniversary First Dances GBDance
also has extensive experience of teaching couples to dance for your
special day. We can suggest choreography to fit in with your own
choice of music or suggest tracks that you could use. Guide to experience levels needed to enjoy these classes Level 1 beginners – Complete beginners with little or no knowledge of dancing please see below. Level 2 improvers – People with more than 4 months experience of Ballroom and Latin dancing Level 3 -People with more than a years worth of experience of Ballroom and Latin dancing with experience of at least 8 of the 10 standard dances. Joining level 1 beginners classes Initially these classes are designed for couples with little or no experience of partner dancing. We teach 10 or so dances during the course and the knowledge of dance builds over time. At around 3 to 4 weeks after the course begins it becomes a very difficult task to join in and catch up with the rest of the class. If you have some previous experience of Ballroom and Latin dance then it may well be possible for you to join a class after this point. If you have no experience of dance then we can offer Private tuition to fast track your learning to allow you to join the class at a later date. Typically you would learn dances at about double the rate that you would in a social class environment. If however you would like to join a beginners class from the start you could e mail us and we can let you know when the next class's begin. Typically we run 3 new classes per year at different venues, days and times. Free ample parking at all venues. Partner dancing is a great skill and fun to learn allowing you to meet new people and learn new skills. If you would like to discuss any dancing needs not covered above then we would be pleased to hear from you.
We
look forward to seeing you soon. Quick class reference
