Comparing Ballroom & Latin Class levels

PRE-IMPROVERS
Bridging the gap between Beginners & Improvers, this class is perfect for those who have gained some confidence with their basic steps but aren’t quite ready to move into the Improvers. This 30-minute class is only accessible to those who have attended the preceding Beginners class. This is because the session will focus on a small piece of Improvers-level choreography that you can insert into the dance just covered in the Beginners class.
Whether you're learning a new step to insert into your routine or introducing a new piece of technique, this class provides you with the ideal space to build on what you’ve already learned whilst reinforcing good habits. Whilst this class introduces new & more stimulating variations, the calm & steady pace will ensure you continue to progress without feeling overwhelmed.

improvers
This class is suitable for those who have been dancing for at least a year & for those who wish to build upon the basic steps & techniques learnt in Beginners and Pre-Improvers, whilst continuing to expand their social dancing abilities.
It is a great transition class for those who feel they want to attend the Intermediate class but are a little cautious about taking the plunge. It is also a super place to start if you are feeling a little 'rusty'. At this level we also introduce the Samba, Viennese Waltz, Latin American Jive & Paso Doble.
