Ballroom Classes
Our Ballroom classes cover the 3 styles of ballroom dancing – Modern or Standard eg waltz, slow foxtrot, tango; Latin American eg rumba, jive, samba, cha cha cha; and New Vogue Sequence Dancing eg Merrilyn, La Bomba, Gypsy Tap. The New Vogue dances are set sequence dances to the rhythms of the waltz, quickstep, foxtrot etc.
Adult classes are on-going throughout the year. They are held in 8 week blocks, with each block covering 3 different dances.
Our Beginner Ballroom classes are held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Sample of dances covered: Slow Rhythm, Cha Cha Cha, Quickstep, Evening 3 Step, Samba, Waltz, Festival Glide, Jive, Slow Foxtrot, Rumba and Swing Waltz.
For those who have completed all our Beginner blocks or who already know the basics for the Standard and Latin dances as well as the easier New Vogue dances, we have an Intermediate Ballroom class on a Tuesday evening which covers more advanced dances and moves. This class also runs in 8 week blocks and will cover, depending on difficulty and how the class progresses, 2-3 dances. Sample of dances covered: La Bomba, Tango, Tracie Leigh Waltz, Barclay Blues, further variations in the Standard and Latin dances.
Where to go to practice? We hold a Social Practice Night every month on a Saturday evening from February to November. See our Social Practice Night page for information.

Joggers, fine stiletto heels, rubber soles and work boots are equally unsuitable. Your teacher will discuss where to purchase your ballroom shoes.
