Whilst variety is important for our Keep Dancing classes the same dances are taught across all classes at the same time and across the same month. This allows to build the movement memory of the routine in the body and most importantly build the confidence of the dancer so that when they dance the whole routine, they feel a great sense of achievement.

Keep Dancing gives you a feel good factor and all participants are supportive and encouraging of one another so if you are a complete beginner or you have danced before you will be made to feel welcome.

Styles of dance you may learn at a Keep Dancing class may include, Jive, Bhangra, Ballet, Line Dancing, Salsa, Paso Doble, Disco, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Waltz, Rumba, Cha Cha just to name a few.

When I first start learning the routine, I always think to myself I will never get this. But with patience from my teacher and practice from me over the month I get there and feel amazing when I dance the whole dance from start to finish. It gives me such a feel-good factor

I always feel good after a dancing session. It has improved my mental health .I have made new friends and enjoy meeting up with them each week. I find dancing brilliant exercise as I don’t like going to the Gym or other forms of exercise. I have found that my clothes have been feeling looser and have I gone down a dress size since dancing restarted after lockdown.
