Class Levels and Types

Beginner Class

Gentle warm-up then we cover our basic hand hold and connection.

You'll learn 3 moves from our core beginners list.

Meet other beginner dancers and you'll be dancing within 40 minutes!

Beginner & Intro-mediate Review

Consolidate what you have learned and get one to one assistance from the taxi dancers.

Ask questions, get one to one help with any of the material we covered in the class.

We often expand the review to have an Intro-mediate Review for more experienced beginners where we might teach an extra move and add technique points.

Intermediate Class

Learn some more challenging moves and techniques!

We teach 2-3 moves and technique points. After the class there is a review with the teacher to ask questions and get one to one assistance.

Dancers need to complete a Skills Check with a teacher before moving up to intermediate to ensure dancers don't injure themselves or someone else.

Check each class night for more information.

Variations Class

Some night have a variations class instead of an intermediate class. Anyone who has attended more than 10 classes may attend without the need for a skills check.

We teach variations of beginner and easier intermediate moves often including aspects of styling and musicality.

Check each class night for more information.

Social Dancing

Social dancing or freestyle is when we turns the lights down and enjoy continuous music until the end of the night.

This is a great time to meet other dancers, practise moves and dance skills to wide variety of music to suit all tastes.

FAQs
Do I need a partner?
You don't need a partner but if you have one then great so come on your own or with a friend
We rotate partners during the class which allows people to progress much faster than they would if they stayed with the same partner where people end up compensating for each others mistakes
While rotating is the most effective way to learn there are reasons why a couple may wish to stay together, let our taxi dancers know if you would like to stay with your partner during the class
When can I start?
Start anytime and on any day of the week that we run classes. We don't run terms or courses, any week is a good week to start. We get new people starting each week
No need to book or phone ahead - just turn up
Check our home page before you come - occasional venue changes occur when a school needs the use of their hall
Anything I need to bring?
A named water bottle is good. There is water at all the venues but no cups.
Clothing you're comfortable in, you can dance in anything. You might get warm so wear something cool or have a layer you can take off
Comfortable shoes that aren't too grippy. Flat soled shoes are better than gym shoes - no stilettos and no bare feet
What if I struggle?
We have dedicated helpers called taxi dancers who are here for the new dancers
There are no mistakes - only variations. Smile when it goes right 🙂 - laugh when it goes wrong! 😄
How many people attend each night?
Anywhere between 40 and 120 depending on the night and time of year, so there's quite a buzz to the classes
What age of people go along?
We have dancers in their teens through to their seventies and beyond
Everyone's very friendly, check out each class night for specific information
