Dance Styles
Most of the dance styles we teach are partner dances. The main ones are:
- Modern Jive, a flashy and fun dance set to modern dance music. It features plenty of fancy-looking spins and dips without complex footwork.
- Bachata, a Latin dance from the Dominican Republic.
- Salsa, a popular Latin dance with slightly more complex footwork.
- Rueda, a exciting group dance that is danced in a large circle.
- We run occasional special classes introducing other styles. Examples include Cha, Zouk, Rock and Roll. Keep an eye on our newsletters to see what's coming up!
The styles for 2023 are:
| Term | Styles |
|---|---|
| Term 1 | Modern Jive, Salsa |
| Term 2 | Modern Jive, Salsa |
