Frequently asked Questions
What
should I wear?
Do I need a partner?
No, unless specifically stated for special workshops or courses. You don't
need a partner for any of our regular classes listed above. Plenty of people
come on their own or with friends - we rotate partners in the classes as
it's the best way to learn and you get to meet/dance with everyone!
Do I need to book in advance?
No, unless specifically stated for special workshops or courses. You don't
need to book for any of our regular drop-in classes listed above. Just turn
up!
