ABC FAC

I am an absolute dance beginner. Can I still take part in the Beginner Class?Yes, of course! Our beginner class is especially designed for people who have never danced before as well for those who already have dance experience but want to learn the right heels technique in a slow pace.
-
What am I going to learn in a Beginner Class?First we will warm our bodies up with a quick and intense workout. We follow with a short stretching session and focus on strengthening our ankles, legs and core. An introduction into the most essential key techniques of dancing in heels will help you to gain knowledge for your future training. In the end you will learn a fun beginner-friendly combo or choreography.

Is wearing high heels bad for my body?You may have heard that it not only can cause painful problems in your feet and ankles, but it can harm your knees, hips and spine, as well. We agree, if you don't have any technique, any muscles and any knowledge about standing, posing, walking and especially dancing in heels, it will be anything but healthy. BUT for us, the most important thing is to 1) prevent injuries by helping you build muscles and strength in your back, core, legs and fett 2) prevent risks of pain by giving you the right technique on how to use high heels properly 3) prevent any future problems by building your knowledge on how to take care of your body inside and outside of the dance studio Dancing in general (and in high heels) will definitely bring you a lot of benefits: Benefit #1: Improvement of posture & confidence Benefit #2: Improvement of muscle strength & flexibility Benefit #3: Improvement of body awareness, physical & mental well-being
