** FAQ **

Do I need dance experience? We teach from beginners every night! Do I need to book in for a course? Just make it when you can - but we're pretty sure you'll end up addicted

Do I need to bring a partner? Just bring yourself! We rotate during our classes which make them a great way to meet people and means you get to dance with everyone! Do I need special gear? Just comfy shoes, a water bottle and lots of enthusiasm!
