Friday Classes New Location

A reminder that our Friday afternoon classes are no longer run by the RBWM at Braywick Leisure Centre. We have decided to continue them for you at our studio in Burnham.

The costs will fall in line with all our other classes and so will be £8.50 per person, £38.25 for a block of 5 sessions (valid for 3 months) or £68 for a block of 10 sessions (valid for 6 months).

The class runs from 2pm-3.45pm, includes free tea & coffee (bring your own mugs) and free parking.

Waltz Course Final Extension

After discussing with existing participants the Monday night Waltz course will be extended for a final 4 weeks, to take us up to 4th September.

We are moving into more silver level steps and may even throw in a few gold for good measure!

This 4 week extension costs £30pp and is available to book now. Students of Improver 2 level and above are welcome to join this final extension.

We will have a new Salsa course starting from Monday 11th September.

Bournemouth Dance Weekend Booking Deadline

A reminder that the final booking deadline for our Bournemouth Dance Weekend is Thursday 31st August.

We are sold out of balcony upgrades but do still have some seaview upgrades available and we only have limited spaces remaining for this break.

A reminder that if you want to reserve a space for another person you will need to use the full booking system.

Foxtrot Course

Our next One Dance Course will be Foxtrot, starting from Wednesday 6th September and is available to book now.

Places cost £45pp

Monday Waltz course final extension from Monday 14th August.

Autumn Price Increase

In case you missed our latest news announcement we will be implementing a small price increase from Friday 1st September.

We have kept prices steady since January 2020, even through Covid, but unfortunately we have come to the point of needing to increase prices, as our own costs have risen.

You can take advantage of the current prices until Thursday 31st August and you are welcome to stack packages/sessions.

The post Weekly Update Sunday 13th August appeared first on Learn To Dance.

As we type this we currently have a regular corporate group class that includes attendees in Denmark & Japan; wedding couples in Norwich & Scotland; and students taking the odd private lesson online if their schedule means they can’t make their session at the studio!

Plus enquiries for Zoom Dance Lessons are increasing.

Zoom Wedding First Dance Lessons Online

We’re getting a lot of enquiries for our wedding first dance lessons to be provided online at the moment. Thanks to our dedicated Zoom Dance Lessons setup, not living close to our studio is no longer a restriction on your ability to experience our dance lessons.

We are experienced in how to translate our dance moves into easy to follow instructions online. Our First Dance choreography lessons are tailored around your choice of song. We work with you to put together a routine you can enjoy on your wedding day.

Worried about whether you’ll forget the moves in between sessions? We record some of your Zoom First Dance lessons practices. You are then sent a download link and can refer back to the videos to assist your memory when practicing.

The great thing with our Zoom First Dance lessons setup is that we can be available at short notice. A lot of our wedding first dance lessons enquiries are coming in only a few weeks before their wedding. We provide lessons five days a week (including Sundays) but we can be flexible should you struggle to find slots.

With prices starting from £35 we have options to suit all budgets, including a number of First Dance package options. If you’d like to discuss our First Dance lessons get in touch or search our availability now.

Zoom Private Dance Lessons

Not able to make your booked lesson? Maybe you’re still nervous about the Coronavirus levels or live too far away to attend our studio? Don’t worry we can still provide dance lessons online via Zoom.

Whether it’s fun solo dance routines, learning the basics of Ballroom and Latin American, or adapting Sequence dances to your front rooms, we’re experienced in compressing the dances into confined spaces.

Did you know that during the 2021 UK lockdown we even adapted the Waltz as an 18 week online course!

Lessons can be booked as purely Zoom Dance Lessons (just choose the Zoom option when booking). But we are also able to switch an existing in-person session to Zoom if you find yourself unable to make a booked appointment at short notice.

Interested in booking yourself a Zoom Dance Lesson with one of our team? You can search our availability and book online.

Corporate and Team Building Online Events

Whilst we are experienced in providing dance sessions for corporate events and team building days we have seen a rise in enquiries for streamed sessions.

We run weekly sessions for EJEF (a English-Japanese language school in Buckinghamshire) which includes regular attendees from Japan. They also have colleagues that have taken part in the Zoom Dance Lessons from around the globe (including Denmark & Tehran).

Carers Wales enlisted us to provide a fun Saturday Night Fever workshop as part of their ‘Me Time‘ project. The project aims to support un-paid carers with their mental health, especially due to the effects of the pandemic.

The Zoom Dance session was a great hit, with one person even taking part from a houseboat! We loved hearing how well it went:

Just to say a huge thanks from Amber and I – it was the best afternoon at work ever!!…So many smiley faces…Thanks again … it was a real blast !!!

YouTube Dance Lessons

During the first UK lockdown we produced four videos a week to hopefully keep our students busy and entertained. With options for Solo dancers, Partners, Sequence and Kids we tried to make sure there was something for everyone.

Since the reopening of the dance school we have still tried to maintain a weekly online dance lesson on our YouTube channel. In fact our viewership quickly went global and only around 12% of our viewership are actually based in the UK!
