Everyone is welcome, whether you attend as a couple, want to come with friends or are dancing solo!

What to wear:
Bring a bottle of water with you and wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows you to move, with layers that can be removed if it gets warm. Special footwear is not required; please only wear heels if you are used to them. Choose shoes that move easily across the floor—ideally without rubber soles, such as trainers.

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.

Benefits:
Ballroom and Latin classes offer a fun and social way to improve fitness, coordination, and confidence, boost wellbeing, and learn a new skill through music, movement, and connection with others.
