Adult Courses

This course provides an opportunity to learn the basics of Waltz, Quickstep, Tango and Social Foxtrot. The tutor will help the men to lead their partners through a simple sequence in each rhythm. Suitable for all ages, dancing provides exercise, enhances memory and encourages social interaction. You will have fun while acquiring skills that benefit you for life. Couples are especially welcome. However, it is not essential to bring a partner as the tutor uses a pool of helpers to partner individuals. You will keep the same partner throughout the week.

From the basic steps at the beginning we will progress throughout the week in each rhythm to culminate in a set of routines that can be used anywhere.The pace of learning will depend on the participants.

Please wear lightweight shoes and comfortable clothes to allow you to take fast steps and quick turns.
