Ballroom and Latin
Ballroom and Latin includes those 'Strictly Come Dancing' favourites Waltz, Tango, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Cha Cha, Rumba, Samba, Paso doble & Jive. No partner required! The beginners classes give you the footwork and simple routines to 'get round the floor' in basic ballroom and Latin. These basics then help you build on more complicated routines ad the ability to lead or follow. We hope to ensure that you feel comfortable and at home on any dance floor! Childrens classes and private lessons are also available. Beginners classes are on a Tuesday at 7pm at the High St. Baptist Church, Tring.
Argentine Tango
Argentine Tango is a social dance that originated in Argentina. It is very passionate and dramatic! The dance is more fluid and improvised than the ballroom tango. It relies on the leader to dictate the tempo and steps. If you are more interested in an exciting social form of dancing like salsa where you are free to improvise then this could be the dance style for you! This is a beginners class. No partner is required - although please be advised that the hold and some of the moves are closer and sometimes more intimate than ballroom tango. This is a beginners class.
A six week beginners class is starting on the 14th September at the New Mill Baptist Church. It costs £25 which means you get your last class for free! Book your place now......
