Ballroom and Latin American: Beginners
Aimed at complete beginners who haven’t danced any Ballroom and Latin American before and are ready to take their first steps!
Ballroom and Latin American: Improvers I
Classes for beginners who have attended a couple of courses and are still working towards a good grounding in a variety of dances.
These classes may also be suitable for those who have danced in the past or tried other types of dancing.
Ballroom and Latin American: Improvers II
Classes for those who are no longer beginners who want to continue their dancing journey!
Ballroom and Latin American: Improvers III
Classes for those who are starting to focus on more complex steps and the beginnings of footwork and technique.
Ballroom and Latin American: Intermediate
Classes for those who are keen to learn not only new variations but develop their style and technique.
All levels: Latin in Line
Latin in Line classes involve simple and fun routines suitable for all levels. Alternative steps are given as options depending on confidence as well as the opportunity to gradually develop a Latin American style and technique.
Whatever you feel comfortable in... loose fitting clothes which allow you to move are ideal and layers so you can remove one (or two!) if it gets warm!
There's no need to buy special shoes when you are starting out. Don't wear heels unless you are used to them and try and choose shoes that can move easily across the floor so ideally no rubber soles like trainers.
No. Everyone is welcome whether you are attending as a couple, with friends or solo. No-one will ever be left on the sidelines, unless they prefer to dance solo - you will always have the opportunity to dance with the teacher or other attendees.
Classes are often a mix of couples and singles so while we encourage everyone to swap and change partners no-one has to and you can opt to just dance with the partner you came with.
You may wish to bring some water as it can get warm!
On average classes last an hour with a brief break halfway through. Please check the timings for each class.
Classes usually run in 4/5/10 week courses and cost £36/£45/£90pp for a course or the drop in PAYG rate is £12pp per class.
Classes run in courses so that we can ensure that each class continues to progress and move forwards with not only a variety of dances but also increasingly challenging steps and variations. People are still welcome to drop in for classes but we will work to the course schedule.
Course fees are non-refundable so there may be courses where you choose to PAYG if you cannot attend all the sessions.
We appreciate that sometimes things happen, so if you are unable to attend a class within the course every effort will be made to offer an alternative session within the same 5-week period but this might be at a different location, time and level.
Yes, you can join any course part-way through but you will need to pay the drop in rate of £12pp per class for the remaining sessions in that course.
If you attend week one and decide not to continue, although we will be sad to see you go, we will of course refund the remaining four weeks.
Private tuition fees are between £60-£70 per hour depending on the cost of the studio hire. This includes sole use of the studio and your instructor. Discounts are given for block bookings or if students have access to their own venue. Use the contact page to get in touch for more information.
Classes and private tuition sessions take place at a variety of venues including Newbury Rugby Club, Monks Lane, Ace Space, St Nicholas Road, The Learning Centre at the Corn Exchange and Fair Close Centre, Newtown Road. Please check the details for each class on the class timetable page.
