⚖️ A Note on Levels: To ensure the best learning experience for everyone, please respect the level requirements. Remember: Levels are specific to the dance style. (Example: You may be Advanced in Casino but Intermediate in Afro-Cuban). Choosing the right level ensures the flow of the class and the best progress for you and your fellow dancers!

Our bootcamps on Friday are perfect for those who want to delve even deeper into the material.
