Adult Beginner Ballroom & Latin American
LearnToDance run three Adult Beginner Ballroom and Latin American dance classes throughout the week in Burnham (Sunday & Monday evenings; Wednesday lunchtime).
Our beginner classes are designed for complete beginners, with only a few basic steps covered per dance, and you can attend either with a partner or on your own.
Those that come with a partner are not required to swap during the classes.
What do I learn in Adult Beginner Ballroom classes?
LearnToDance classes run throughout the year and we cover the basics of 12 dances in a rolling cycle. During our beginner classes you will learn Waltz, Rumba, Foxtrot, Samba, Tango, Jive, Quickstep, Cha Cha, Viennese Waltz, Salsa, Argentine Tango and Bachata.
Each week the classes cover two dances, one Ballroom and one Latin American. With one of the dances being a recap of the previous week, followed by teaching the next dance in the rolling cycle.
Below you can see our Class Timetable for the coming week. To see further ahead, just change the date at the top of the schedule.
If you want to view our printable class timetable click here.
You can also book yourself into any of the sessions using the ‘Book’ option next to the class.
If there is no book option, the class or course may be fully booked or the booking window has closed.
It may be possible to still book in but you will need to contact us to confirm availability.
What if I just want to learn one or two dances?
On Sunday nights at 6pm we run 12 week beginner courses.
These focus on the basics of that dance for 5 weeks, with the sixth and eleventh weeks being a recap of everything we've covered in the previous 5.
The courses cost £50pp per 6 week block.
We also run improver 6 Week Courses in a variety of single dances throughout the year. Whilst these classes are aimed at improver level you can always contact us to see if it would be suitable.
You can search our timetable and book courses on our full booking system.
Alternatively, you are welcome to jump in and out of classes that are covering the particular dances you are after.
The best way however is probably via a personal tuition session with one of our instructors. These sessions are for up to two people and you can focus on whatever dances you want to, or let us guide you.
