FAQ

What are the workshop levels?

The workshops are open to all levels of dancers. The instructor will provide techniques/variations tailored to each student's current level to ensure everyone is appropriately challenged.

What to bring for footwear?

Latin Dance shoes are recommended, but not required. Any clean pair of shoes that is comfortable and not grippy on the floor will work.

For newer dancers, we recommend wearing comfortable flats with a non-sticky sole that you can dance in for multiple hours (Fuego sneakers, Taygra sneakers, leather soled ballet flats, suede soled jazz shoes, and Toms are all great options).

You may also choose to dance in socks if you do not yet have appropriate footwear.

What to wear?

Workout outfits are typically what people wear to the daytime workshops, but other outfits may be appropriate as long as they are comfortable enough to dance in (not too tight, not too short, not too warm, allows you to move your arms, hips, torso, and rest of the body easily, not a tripping hazard, etc.).

Can we book private lessons?

Our instructor will have extremely limited availability for privates. Payment is required in advance to secure your time slot. Email [email protected] to book.


Can you tell me more about the venue?

Sugar Swing Ballroom is a beautiful special events venue with sprung hardwood floors and bar service in the Whyte Avenue neighbourhood.

While in the space, attendees are subject to the Sugar Swing Code of Conduct ensuring a safe space to learn and practice the art of partner dancing.

What are the venue's policies?

No outdoor shoes inside the studio. Bring a clean pair of indoor shoes (non-marking) to ensure we do not damage the studio's floor.

What should I bring for food?

A refillable water bottle and whatever you may like to consume during the breaks. Let us know in advance if you have any allergies.

Do I need to bring a partner?

No, these workshops do not require a partner.

What if I have more questions?

If you have any questions, please feel free to message us. And remember, we're building a friendly and inclusive community so be sure to do your part!
