A whole week to throw yourself over to music and fun times!
Learn all about these fabulous dances and become a better dancer with the best dancers and teachers in the business.
who is it for?
Learn swing and rock’n’roll from the cream of the crop.
At the Dance Camp classes are divided into three levels, so you can choose the level that’s right for you:
Level 1 is for people who have never danced before, or people that haven’t been dancing for very long, or who aren’t that confident with the basics yet. It is also ideal for those who want to start again after a long break, or return to the fundamental basics. You will learn the basic steps, the structure of the dance and the first elements of connection with the partner, whilst having fun of course!
Level 2 is aimed for people who have already covered the basics and are familiar with the basic steps, roles (leader/follower) and musical structure. At this level you will begin to work towards a higher awareness of rhythm, technique and coordination, consolidating everything that you have learnt so far and beginning to experiment with the first variations.
Level 3 is intended for those who have been dancing for a while and have a solid grasp of the basics. At this level you will explore technique, musicality and connection, tackle new combinations and rhythmic variations, and begin to develop personal style.
Level 4 is for experienced dancers who would like to explore style, precision and creativity. The material will be varied, sophisticated and technically challenging. This level requires a solid grasp of the fundamentals, a good understanding of rhythm, advanced technical ability, and an open mind when it comes to creative exploration. You will work on complex combinations, quality of movement, and musical interpretation.
