FAQ
Frequently asked questions from beginners:
I've never danced before – am I too old/inflexible/unathletic?
No! People from 18 to 75 years old dance with us. Dancing is suitable for every body and every age. You don't need any special fitness or flexibility – that comes with time. The only important thing is: enjoyment of movement and music.
What should I wear to the first class?
Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely (e.g., leggings and a t-shirt). For most classes, you will need dance shoes or socks. Any special requirements (e.g., ballet slippers) will be noted in the class description.
Can I have a trial lesson?
Yes! You can book a trial lesson anytime. Simply register via the link below so we know you're coming.
Do I have to come alone or can I bring a friend?
Both are possible! Many people come alone and quickly find their place in the group. But you're also welcome to start with friends.
How quickly can I learn as a beginner?
This varies from person to person. Most beginners notice initial progress after 4-6 weeks of regular training. After 3 months, you'll have a solid foundation and be able to dance simple choreographies.
How much does a beginner's course cost?
Prices vary depending on the course format. A trial lesson costs €15, single tickets start at €18, and 10-lesson passes start at €160. You can find all prices on our pricing page.
