By dancing with a variety of partners in a calm, supportive and, as always, relaxed setting, this workshop is designed to help you...
- Grow in confidence.
- Boost your leading and following skills.
- Stop overthinking.
- Get even more enjoyment out of your dancing.
just six dances
We’ll be focussing on only six dances* that should feel familiar to everyone, regardless of your repertoire:
- Waltz
- Foxtrot
- Quickstep
- Cha Cha
- Rumba
- Jive
build your CONFIDENCE
If you have ever wished you could let go of hesitation on the dancefloor, stop overthinking every step and simply enjoy the music and dancing, this workshop is exactly what you need. It is designed to help you break free from the comfort zone of familiar partners and routines, so you can build the kind of natural, relaxed confidence that allows your dancing to flow with ease and joy.
transform the way you dance
These skills help us to transform the way you dance in every class and event. You will find yourself stepping onto the floor with a quieter mind, clearer focus and far less hesitation about who is standing opposite you.
Whether you are nervous about trying new steps or worried about how you will connect with someone new, this session offers a safe space to explore, make mistakes, learn and grow. It is about embracing the fun of dancing with anyone, anywhere and discovering just how fearless you can really be.

keeping it simple
This is not about throwing you in at the deep end. You will be supported every step of the way with practical tips, thoughtful suggestions and a welcoming environment that keeps things light but purposeful.
partnering format
Each dance will be played as two tracks in a row:
- The first with your usual partner.
- The second with someone else.
discovery
Sessions like these are often where dancers make significant realisations. You will discover what you are already doing well, where habits might be holding you back, and how adaptable your skills truly are. Our regular partners have a familiarity with our 'style' that can often camouflage our weaknesses. It's always interesting when we become more aware of how different people experience the same dance.
clear guidance
The real value lies in the confidence you will carry forward. Dancing with different people helps reveal your strengths, pinpoint where your clarity or technique may be slipping, and gives you the tools to adapt in real time.
As always, expect a friendly atmosphere and clear guidance throughout. Steven will be on hand to gently highlight what to focus on with each partner change.

Session duration
