Ballroom & Latin Line Dancing

What's It all about

This isn't 'yeeha' cowboy dancing, but it is Ballroom and Latin Line Dancing. Our routines are based upon 9 of the Ballroom and Latin dances (Waltz, Tango, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Cha Cha, Rumba, Samba, Jive and Paso Doble).
  • No partner is required! Ladies and gentlemen are welcome. 
  • It's a great opportunity to experience dances that are not taught in group classes until the higher levels too. For example, the Samba and Paso aren't taught in our Beginner Classes. 
  • Many people enjoy the extra opportunity to dance & the freedom of not having to worry about a partner. Like all our classes, these sessions are designed to be fun.

​In the video above you'll see our line dancers at some of the dance events we hold and also on our cruise trips on the Cunard Queens.

Classes are offered at various times and locations, ensuring there is always a class that suits your schedule.

Tuition method

On Tuesdays, we generally recap each dance twice. On Wednesdays and Thursdays, routines are typically recapped a minimum of four times. On Fridays, we rarely recap allowing us to dance the greatest number of routines.

Music Speed/Tempo

We sometimes adjust the speed of the music for both cardiovascular benefits and fun. This occurs occasionally in the Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday classes but is most common on Fridays.

WHAT TO WEAr & bring to class

As with all of the classes we offer, there is no dress code beyond suitability to the activity and environment. Please wear comfortable and sensible shoes (no flip flops, bare feet, loose-fitting shoes or stiletto heels that may damage the floor). Pumps are fine. Please do not add chalk or powder to the soles of your shoes. Shoes must be worn at all times. Please bring a drink. Please ask us if you would like advice.

Routines & Videos

With the exception of the Charleston Stroll, Steven personally choreographs every routine that appears in our classes & workshops. However, he doesn't view these as isolated dances. Each routine is built as part of a carefully considered learning ecosystem. Steven designs every dance with your long-term progression in mind:

✔ Building Blocks: Familiar ideas reappear in new dances, allowing one dance to naturally support the next so your progress feels steady & easier.

✔ Smart Design: Steps are deliberately chosen to reinforce muscle memory & build your confidence & capabilities over time.

​✔ The Perfect Balance: Steven maintains a conscious balance between challenge & enjoyment.

The goal is for you to feel stimulated but not overwhelmed, ensuring you are engaged yet free to relax & have fun. Everything is designed to work together while helping you grow in confidence & genuinely enjoy the process.
