Pure fun every week!
Please, always check our Holiday/No Class schedule on the right!
You do not need a partner. If some classes have more leaders or more followers, that is O.K. because we change partners constantly. Dress comfortably (you will sweat) and use shoes, which glide enough but are not slippery (no tennis shoes). You need to wear shoes to avoid injuries and bring enough water.
We recommend that you shower before class and use not too intense deodorants. Brushing teeth and using a gum or mint are also recommended. Check on the right to see how the class names fit to the class levels we offer: "Class Info & Levels". The schedule is shown below.
By the way: YOU CAN HIRE US for your next party or event. We are well experienced making a fun interactive dance event.
