At County we welcome dancers of all abilities at any time of life. Whether you are a complete beginner (with two left feet!) or an advanced dancer we have classes for you in a fun, relaxed atmosphere.
Beginners
Beginners can join our
classes at any time. The County prides itself on always having several
qualified teachers present at every class. This means there is always the
ability to correctly demonstrate the steps and someone on hand to help. It also
gives us the opportunity, if necessary, to divide the class into groups.
Therefore pupils are free to progress at their own pace.
We hold NEW BEGINNER CLASSES at different times throughout the year. We will aim to teach the basics in Waltz, Social
Foxtrot, Cha Cha Cha and Jive, sometimes more, it all depends on the level of
progression and the size of the class. We try to create a relaxed fun
atmosphere for everyone to learn in.
Next Steps
After achieving the basics
in Waltz, Social Foxtrot, Cha Cha Cha and Jive pupils at this level are slowly
introduced to Tango, Quickstep and Rumba. We usually focus on just two of the
dances within the lesson time so there is a good balance of dancing, learning
and practicing.
Improvers
In the Improvers class
pupils have a sound understanding of the basics, and can successfully dance
Waltz, Tango, Quickstep, Cha Cha, Rumba and Jive. At this level we focus a
little more on style and technique and introduce two further dances, the Foxtrot
and Samba.
Advanced
This class is aimed at the
more experienced dancer. A sound knowledge of all ten dances is expected. Steps
taught go beyond the usual syllabus, and variations will become more
challenging, both technically and choreographically, lots of fun!
