You can come in your regular streetwear, something you are comfortable moving around in. Shoes-wise, do put on something comfortable and will not fall off your feet easily (e.g. no slippers). There will be some pivoting, so you may also want to wear a pair of shoes with a slightly smoother base.

If you cancel your class booking at least 8 hours prior to class commencement time, no penalty will be imposed.

If you cancel your class less than 8 hours prior to class commencement time or did not show up for a class that you have booked, your class credit will be forfeited. If you are on an All-access Unlimited Pack, you will be charged a late cancellation/no show fee of $15.

FAQs on Class Structure

Beginners who have no experience in dance will be enrolled in the Novice course. 

The Novice course is made up of a series of 6 classes, taught in a progressive manner. After completing the Novice course, you can proceed to register for any class in the Amateur level.

You may register for any of the classes in the Amateur level. Unlike the Novice level, the classes in the Amateur level are modular in nature and not taught in a progressive manner. The Amateur classes are composed of solo classes as well as partnerwork classes.

After you have completed the Amateur level, you may proceed to enrol in any of the classes in the Adept level. Like the Amateur level, the classes in the Adept level are each composed of solo and partnerwork classes.

In a level, each class is a stand-alone module. You don’t need to take module 1 before taking module 2. You could also choose to take modules 4, 7 and 9 all in the same week if you have the time.

We will have both partnerwork modules, and solo modules working on footwork, spins and body movement in each level (Amateur, Adept and Advanced).

We understand life, work and family happens. With the new system, you don’t have to worry if you miss classes. You can continue with each consecutive module, even if you missed the previous. And when the missed module rolls around again, you can take it at your convenience.

You decide how to pace your own learning journey. You can choose to take your classes at a leisurely pace of once a week. You could also accelerate your learning by taking multiple modules of the same level in a week.

Each module will cover a specific topic, planned out and clearly stated for your benefit. So, if you struggle with certain moves, you can choose to repeat a module till you attain proficiency.

This is the last module of each level, and can only be taken after all other modules in a particular level are completed.

This milestone module serves as a wrap up for the level, covering salient moves from the other modules of that level. Students will be taught how to string moves together based on the modules of that level.

To help you develop as a dancer, there still needs to be some progression to your learning journey. You will therefore be required to complete all the modules in a particular level before moving up to the next. This is as the next level will build on all the moves you have learnt from the previous.

Solo and partnerwork modules can be found in the Amateur, Adept and Advanced levels.

Solo modules include honing your individual spins, body movement and footwork.

Partnerwork modules focus on lead and follow techniques, and each module covers a specific topic.

You will need to complete all the modules (solo and partnerwork) in a level before moving up to the next.

Solo modules will allow you to develop flavorful dancing, and build on your foundation on footwork which is essential in partnerwork.

We have prepared a mapping guide to help you with this. You may refer to it, or speak to us if you need more guidance!

Please feel free to come down to our studio and we will help to assess which level of classes will be suitable for you.
