LEARNING TO DANCE
Can I learn to dance?
Yes, anyone can learn to dance. If you
can walk and keep your balance, you can
learn to dance.
How long will it take?
You will start dancing from your very
first lesson. To complete a course,
it usually takes between 8 to 12 lessons.
How much will each lesson cost?
Group lessons cost between S$60 to S$100
per course, depending on the level of
the dance and the reputation of the
teacher. Private lessons cost S$40
to S$60 per hour.
Do I have to relearn my steps often?
Frequent practice is recommended if you want to
remain polished in your dancing. However,
once you have learned the basic steps in
a dance, you can easily pick up the
new variations, sometimes by just observing
how other people do them.
Can I learn at a time convenient to me?
Most dance schools run classes in the evening
from Monday to Sunday. Afternoon classes
are also available but only if there are
sufficient students to form a class.
Individual classes can be scheduled anytime.
What is the best way to learn?
If you are new, you should take group
lessons, which will introduce you to more
dance enthusiasts and let you have a
rotation of partners. You should also
practice your steps frequently, say
every week, at a disco or at the
school's club nights. Individual
lessons are recommended when you
want to focus on specific problems.
