F.A.Q.
Where are the classes held? We will dance at St. Brides Community Centre, 10 Orwell Terrace, Edinburgh EH11 2DZ – Studio room in the back.

Do I need to know how to dance? Not at all! This is super beginner friendly.

What if I don’t have a partner? You don’t need one! We will rotate regularly between couples so everyone can dance with everyone.

Do you do drop ins? No, we only do modules as we believe this is the best way for learning.

Do I need any special clothes or shoes? Nope! Just wear what you are comfortable in.

Is the class for any age group? Nope! All adults of ANY age over 18 are welcome.

How do I reserve my spot? Just message us and we will send you the payment details and book you in.

Do I need to book in advance? Yes! We have limited spaces and want to make sure all our students have comfortable room to move in.

I missed a session, can I make up for it on another module? We believe the best way to learn this dance is in a progressive class with a structured lesson plan. The course is sold as a block on specific dates that cannot be moved, in order to provide the best experience for the whole group.
