Nope 🙂 Singles, as well as couples, are welcome and encouraged to join our group classes. We rotate partners throughout class so you’ll have so you’ll have ample opportunity to practice and dance whether you sign up by yourself or with a partner. Studies have shown that learning to dance with a variety of partners helps you learn 30% faster, and it’s more fun too! At private lessons, your teacher will be your partner. So don’t let not having a partner hold you back from the joy of dance.
FAQ
FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
Learn to Dance
Since levels vary widely by studio and region, we ask dancers who are new to our studio to take their first class at the Intro level (or take a private lesson if you prefer) so your teacher can assess your level and recommend the best placement for you. When you’re ready to move-up, just ask your teacher.
Yes you can! Our systematic, stair-step approach can transform even the most awkward beginners to accomplished dancers. We truly believe everyone can learn and enjoy dancing.
Studio Membership
Click the “Join Us” button, to sign up online and pay your first month’s membership via credit card. Your first month’s membership will be prorated if you sign up mid-month.
Membership will automatically renew each month, and your card will be charged on the first of the month. Studio Memberships require an initial 3-month commitment; after 3 months, you may cancel anytime. We request one week notice for cancellations.
Our member classes do not “roll-over” to the next month, but we do offer the flexibility to use your classes at any time during the month. For example, you can attend classes twice in one week to make-up for a missed class the previous week.
Also, our Studio Memberships are our best value and are priced with the knowledge that life happens, and you’ll miss a class here and there. So you’ll still save money with a studio membership even if you miss two weeks of group classes.
If you move away from the area and our studio can no longer reasonably be accessed by you, we will refund the remainder of your month’s membership.
Unfortunately memberships are non-refundable in the case of injury; however we can offer you a credit toward a future month’s membership. Please advise us of your injury as soon as possible, and we can credit your membership (in full week increments) from the time of notification.
If you’ll be gone for just a short time, such as a week or two, we recommend you keep your membership active and attend extra classes as needed before or after your trip. Remember your membership is priced so that you save money even if you miss up to two weeks of group classes. If you’ll be away for an extended period, we can place your membership on hold for up to three months.
