Ready to level up your groove?

This dance class explores Amapiano—a South African genre known for its smooth, grounded movement and rich musicality. Dancers will build foundations, expand groove and control, and learn choreography rooted in the genre’s unique rhythms and flow.

Classes are led by Thiditsana, a Lesotho born artist 🇱🇸, who brings a personal and cultural connection to the movement.

These classes are designed for all levels—whether you're new to Amapiano or looking to deepen your practice.
Level 1 will provide foundation for the levels that come after.

Level 2 will allow students to expand upon the foundations from Level 1.

Level 3 will challenge students with choreography that builds on the foundations from the 2 previous Levels.

💃 IN CLASS, YOU’LL:

• Build on foundational Amapiano movement
• Explore groove patterns, transitions, and choreo
