*Progressive Classes*
Our classes are set up as a series of 6-week progressive courses, with a party after every 3 weeks of instruction. Each class builds upon the previous week's material, so we recommend jumping in or leveling up on week 1!
Week 1 (A): Sat Jan 17, or
Week 1 (B): Sat Mar 21.
Missed a week?
We start each class with a quick review, so if you've just missed one, we can still get you caught up. You can also get with a fellow classmate for the summary video of the class you missed. If you ever feel like you need some extra help catching up, you can always schedule a private lesson.
A vs B?
While Level 1 (beginner) is a single 6-week course, Levels 2, 3, & 4 are each comprised of two different 6-week courses (sets A & B) for a total of 12 weeks per level. These are designed so that you can start with either set first, A or B. (This way students finishing the 6-week level 1 course don't have to wait 6 more weeks for the 12-week level 2 program to restart before they can jump in.)
No partner? No problem!
We'll be rotating partners in class. Dancing with a variety of people is actually super beneficial for developing your lead & follow skills!
