How long will it take me to learn how to dance?
Everyone learns differently. It won't be overnight and it will take practice. So give yourself grace, and enjoy the ride. We see the average person able to partnership dance and social less than a month with consistent attendance! If you want to expedite the process, we recommend private lessons. This way we can focus directly on just you, and not a whole class.
What do I wear for class? What shoes?
Comfortable gym clothes and smooth bottom shoes with a back. Such as ballet slippers, jazz shoes, ballroom shoes, ballroom heels, etc. Please try to avoid rubber sole shoes like tennis shoes, street heels, and sandals.
