choosing a track
There are two tracks to choose from to allow you to learn with dancers that are at the same level and have similar goals. When you register, please specify your track. If you are not sure, Track 1 is the default. You can also send us an email with questions and we can help you decide which track to choose.
You will be able to switch tracks after the first session. In order to ensure consistency, a balanced lead/follow ratio and allow the instructors to work together to build the right curriculum for each group, switching tracks will not be possible without their consent.
The lead / follow ratio for both tracks will be closely monitored and we will do our best to make sure that ratio is balanced.
Track 1: Tarraxa / Kizomba
This track is ideal for dancers that are just starting and have been dancing on and off for up to 2 years. Focus will be placed on fundamentals, body movement, musicality and connection.
This track is for you if you:
Track 2: Kizomba / Semba
This track is ideal for experienced kizomba dancers that would like to challenge themselves and learn more about the faster paced Semba. A strong foundation in kizomba is a must: you should be comfortable dancing fundamental patterns and saidas seamlessly while social dancing.
