Classes
The main emphasis for my classes is to have fun. We start with a general warm up and then progress to a few dances that are simple but help practise most of the moves that we use. We may then work on a current choreography and iron out any problems that arise. I try and include some stick and veil work in each class and also finger cymbals come out most weeks for as long as we can manage before our fingernails turn blue...
I try and encourage class members to be individual and make the dance their own, I feel one of the best things you can do when beginning to dance is listen to as much music as possible, once you begin to feel the music, the dance feels very natural to do and takes away some of the selfconciousness most people suffer from.
No special equipment is needed to join the classes, just comfortable clothing, a bottle of water and a sense of humour. I provide all the props we use, obviously if you wish to bring your own things, you are more than welcome.
