Ready to Start Dancing? Here’s what you need to know:

Before Your First Class:

• Arrive Early: We recommend arriving 5 minutes early to allow time for changing and settling in.
• Respectful Learning Environment: Out of respect for enrolled students, observation during lessons is not permitted.
• Filming Policy: Filming or recording requires the teacher’s consent, typically granted at the end of class to allow you to review choreography.

What to Wear:

• Comfort is Key: Wear loose-fitting clothing that allows for free movement, such as leggings and a top/t-shirt.
• Footwear: Opt for bare feet, non-slip socks, or ballet shoes with flexible soles.
• Coin Hip Belt (Optional): While not mandatory, a coin hip belt adds a touch of sound and flair to your movements. A scarf tied around your hips can also serve as a substitute.

Booking Your Course:

• Convenience at Your Fingertips: Book your course online directly from this page! Payment can be made via credit card or bank transfer.
