8-week course

Beginners' course to Balboa and Shag, dances that fit perfectly to upper tempo swing music.

During the Beginners+ level you will learn more dance vocabulary, get more details on footwork and technique to become more fluent and smooth in both dances.

This course is suitable if you can already lead and follow a few simple figures. Alternatively, you should have significant experience in other dances and be ready to work more to catch up with the content if you have not taken Balboa/Shag classes before.
