Useful Info about classes

New to classes?

If you’d really like to give our Class Programme a go but aren’t quite sure of what to expect, we can pair you up with one of our friendly regular attendees. Your class-going “buddy” can meet you in town to show you the way to our studios, give you the low down on what will happen during your class, and generally show you the ropes. Just give us a call on 0121 689 3170 or email us to arrange a “buddy” to join you in any of our classes.

15 Minute Rule

to prevent injury, participants more than 15 minutes late are not allowed into class, as the warm up section will have been missed. 

What to Wear

Anything comfortable that allows you to move freely. Tracksuit bottoms/leggings and a t-shirt are suitable for most classes. We recommend trainers for Breakin’ and bare feet for Contemporary. If you have tap, ballet or jazz shoes, please wear these accordingly. Please note we do not allow black-soled trainers or outdoor shoes in our studios because they can damage our floors. Please also remove all jewellery before taking part, as failure to do so could result in injury.

Access

We strive to make our classes accessible to people of all physical and learning abilities. If you feel you or your child would benefit from additional support, please get in touch to discuss how best we can provide for you. Please contact Cat Boffy for more information (0121 689 3170)

Selecting your level

To ensure we're providing everyone involved with a quality experience, and to minimise the risk of injury, we ask that you only attend classes advertised for your age and taught at a level equivalent to your own experience. The following guide can be used to help you decide the level that's right for you:

• Beginners: fun classes learning the basics, no previous experience required
• Improvers: a faster pace class aimed at those with a basic understanding of the dance style and knowledge of technique, wanting to develop their skill
• Advanced: technically demanding classes suited to those with a high level of fitness and stamina that have significant dance experience or training
• Open level: adult classes without a specific level, such as Pilates or Musical Dance are open to all levels of experience.
