FAQs
Does it matter if I've never danced before?
No, that’s fine! We offer classes and private lessons for all levels, from beginner to advanced.
I would like to learn how to dance but I have two left feet. What shall I do?
At Freedom 2 Dance you learn what it takes to swap one of your left feet for the right one! Whether you’d like to join one of our beginner courses or whether you’d prefer to learn dancing on a one to one private lesson, Freedom 2 Dance has the solution for you.
Which dances do you teach?
We teach Ballroom, Latin-American and Club Dances. Ballroom dances are: Slow Waltz, Foxtrot, Tango, Quickstep, Viennese Waltz and Slow and Quick Rhythm. Latin dances are: Cha-Cha-Cha, Samba, Rumba, Paso Doble and Jive. Club Dances are Salsa and Argentine Tango.
Can parents be present during the classes?
We find that kids get distracted easily when parents are there during a class, so we kindly ask parents to not be present.
Do I need a partner to join a class?
No, you don’t need a partner to join any of our courses. During the classes we change partners frequently so everyone will get the chance to practice with each other.
I'd like to join a course but I can't make one of the classes. What should I do?
During weeks 1, 2, 4 and 5, we will teach a new Rhythm. If you can’t make any of these weeks, you will still have the chance to catch up in weeks 3 and 6, where we will revisit the dances learned.
What should I wear?
You can wear anything that’s comfortable and doesn’t restrict your movements. Shoes are also important. We don’t recommend rubber sole trainers as these tend to stick to the floor, which could hurt your knees.
If I join the school, do I have to compete in medalist competitions?
No you don’t have to. We’re a social school, and many of our students choose not to compete.
