Children
At Dancetime we teach approximately 15-20 minutes of Ballroom
and Latin American within our children’s classes.
Our pupils aged between 2 and 8 learn the basic steps
through one : one teaching.
We follow the IDTA syllabus and pupils between 3 and 10
years old are able to take Rosette and Stardance Awards when proficient.
From 9 years onwards pupils learn Latin American and
Ballroom figures to a higher level and are able to take Social Dance and One
Dance Awards.
From 9 years pupils are encouraged to partner each other and
our teaching objective is to ensure they feel happy with different rhythms and
would be able to get up and dance at various venues.
The variety of rhythms ensures that there are many dances
each pupil will enjoy.
Adults
In addition we run Adult Ballroom and Latin American classes and provide opportunities to join practice sessions.
These classes require a partner and are for beginners and
intermediates.
You do not need to have previous experience with dance and we
teach in groups small enough for each couple to learn and practice.
Some of our adults learn for specific occasions such as a
forthcoming cruise, others take exams in their chosen dance but most come to be
sociable and to learn how to get round the dance floor with confidence.
Dancing is fun, sociable and rewarding - join us!
