Ten Important Things to Know

1   You do not have to come with a partner. There will be enough dancers to pair up with and if there are more women then men (or the other way round) you still will get a chance to practice the moves.

2   The more you dance in the freestyle the more confident you become and the quicker you learn.

3   Do not worry if you are a beginner or can’t seem to dance; we all were beginners at one point or another, so just keep trying and you will get there.

4   The women will ask the men to dance as often as the men will ask the women to dance.

5   Saying NO to someone who asks you for a dance is discouraged. We all need to learn, we all have different styles and this can have an effect on someone's confidence.

6    It does not matter if you miss a lesson, you will sooner or later learn the moves. Obviously, the more lessons you attend, the quicker you will progress.

7   Usually 6 to 8 Beginner Lessons are needed before you become confident to partake in the Improvers/Intermediate Lesson.

8   The teachers will be very approachable and only too happy to go through the routine with you or a specific move.

9   No violence or drunkenness will be tolerated and it is almost unheard of to find any of this kind of behavior in such a venue. Inappropriate behavior to the female dances will also not be tolerated and anyone found or had a series of complaints towards them will be banned from the venue.

10 You will not be allowed to bring in your own drinks as there is a very reasonably priced licensed bar where they can be purchased.
