Our Lessons

Sometimes we deviate a little from the script to make the dances easy for everyone to learn or to add embellishments. 

Any of these variations have to fit in with the original script form and timing so as not to interfere with others that are following the script precisely. 

For people that want to advance their dancing to competition level, we encourage them to go to professional teachers such as Jackie at The Studio. 

Dance floor etiquette:

1. Don't bump into people.

2. Ballroom eg Foxtrot, Waltz, etc, and sequence dances move anticlock around outside of the room.

3. Overtaking couples give space for people they are overtaking.

4. Stationary dances eg Rock n Roll, Rumba ChaCha, etc, ALLWAYS stay in the middle of the room.

5. Both partners always watch behind each other for people or obstacles.

6. Ladies signal by squeezing the man's shoulder and resist movement that would cause a collision.

7. Men, lead away from a collision.

8. Move off the dance floor if stopped for a conversation.

9. Don't squeeze in front of couples on the dance floor.

10. Dance floor directions of dance
