You can choose between Beginner classes and Intermediate classes - or take both at a discounted price.
The Beginner classes are suitable for beginners and those wanting to recap fundamental Slow Balboa dance techniques. For the Beginner classes, no dance experience is required but you should note that Slow Balboa is commonly danced in a close-embrace position, similar to Ballroom or Tango dancing.
For the Intermediate classes, prior dance experience of Slow Balboa or other slower partner dances, like Blues and Tango, is recommended.
A class is 45 minutes long and, in-between both classes, we have 30 minutes of practice time / social dancing. You do not need a dance partner to register for the classes. We generally rotate dance partners to help learn the techniques of following and leading.
The classes can be booked as blocks of 2 or 3 weeks, and you can book for either the dance role of Follower or of Leader. Please feel free to choose your dance role according to your personal preference, regardless of gender. If you'd like to book different dance roles for Beginner and Intermediate, please choose one role when booking and simply advise us by email.
