Learning and understanding dance over a long weekend with two or three nights' evening dancing to practice what you have learnt that day is inspiring, (and tiring). But what you bring from the weekend is knowledge from world class competitive dancers who have seen it and done it.

 

Their depth of knowledge of technique, poise and balance, presentation, choreography and understanding why and how some dancers have a presence on the floor - and others don't - will enthral and engage you to want to know more and more.

 

Intensive Weekends are recognised by all those who have taken part, to be the best way of improving their dancing for very simple reasons...

 

  • The tuition is provided by experts who truly and fully understand their specialist subject.

 

  • Technique is delivered in step by step easy to understand masterclasses which are the 'building blocks' on which you develop and improve your dancing. With this knowledge, your personal choreography in each dance genre becomes easier because you raise your awareness of why and how each amalgamation (routine/step) happens and its effect on your next...

 

  • Each session is based on the ability and standard of those in the group... for example, beginners/social dancers or skilled/competent dancers and therefore you learn at your pace with others of the same ability.

 

  • Masterclasses delivered by world class tutors over four/five hours during two days significantly aids retention

 

  • The time to practice what you are taught on the same day enables you to 'bed in' the detail whilst it is fresh in your mind.

 

  • The relaxed atmosphere of this holiday with nothing to distract you, and knowing that your room is only a few yards away all provide the environment to retain learning.

 

  • The dancers around you on the holiday have the same aspirations, making the experience a shared one. Being able to watch others as they work through what they have beentaught helps and inspires you to do the same.

 

  • The masterclasses are held in a very convivial atmosphere, made even better by the witty and fun teaching style - as a result, the learning experience is relaxed and memorable. Believe us, serious learning can be fun and informal.

Masterclass DVD

The support for workshops/masterclass holidays grows every year and our professional dancers endeavour to provide couples with a wealth of knowledge. Last year, Carole and I recognised the best way to support our dancers was to have the workshops captured on DVD so that this valuable knowledge could be a life long resource... and the DVD's proved very popular.
