Discover the enjoyment of Sequence Dancing with our friendly, relaxed weekly classes at Learn To Dance in Burnham, Buckinghamshire.
Whether you're completely new to Sequence Dancing, returning after a break, or already enjoy dancing but would like to understand the routines more thoroughly, our Sequence Dancing – Learn Step-by-Step class is designed for you.
We'll break down each dance into manageable steps, helping you understand the footwork, timing, technique and patterns, so you can dance with confidence rather than simply following everyone else around the floor!
What is Sequence Dancing?
Sequence Dancing is a popular form of social dancing where everyone performs the same sequence of steps together, usually moving around the dance floor in a circle.
It incorporates a wonderful variety of Ballroom, Latin American and other dance styles, with routines set to music.
One of the great things about Sequence Dancing is that once you've learnt a routine, you can enjoy dancing it at tea dances, social evenings and sequence dance events across the country.
And with so many dances to discover, there's always something new to learn!
Practise Sequence Dancing at Home
During the Covid lockdowns, Emma and Antony recorded a series of lessons showing how to adapt some popular sequence dances for smaller spaces, so you could keep dancing and practising at home.
Those lessons are still available today! Whether you'd like to refresh your memory, practise a few steps or simply have a go in your living room, you can explore them below.
What Will We Learn?
Our weekly classes will cover a mixture of traditional favourites, newer popular sequences and requests from students.
Some of the dances we're planning to explore include:
- Catherine Waltz – a much-loved traditional Waltz sequence.
- Rumba One – a popular Latin sequence with a lovely rhythm.
- Saunter Together – a classic sequence dance.
- Newer and popular dances – we'll introduce other routines as the class develops.
- Your requests! – have a favourite you'd love to learn or revisit? Let us know!
Rather than trying to squeeze several new dances into one session, we'll take time to explain the routines properly, giving you the opportunity to understand and practise the steps.
The dances taught will vary, so there's always a reason to come back!
Do I Need a Partner?
Absolutely not!
You're welcome to attend on your own or with a partner.
Where numbers are uneven, our teachers and assistants will join in as partners wherever possible.
We aim to make our classes friendly, inclusive and enjoyable, whether you're attending for the first time or have been dancing for years.
Is This Class Suitable for Beginners?
Yes! No previous Sequence Dancing experience is necessary.
Our step-by-step approach makes the class particularly suitable for beginners, but it's also ideal for more experienced dancers who want to refresh their memory, improve their technique or learn routines they haven't danced before.
There are no exams, no pressure and no expectation that you'll remember everything straight away!
