New Courses

All Venues Commencing from:13th January 2012

Our 6wk courses take you through the fundamental skills and figures of each style, with progression in each lesson to more advanced content. Suitable for beginners with and without partners.

Free Lessons

Monday 6:30-7pm - Intro Rockabilly (Mustang Bar)

Rockabilly works differently to most other dance styles, requiring quite different actions and emphasis from the lead and the follow. This free class introduces the basic footwork and actions for each party. As the focus is separate for lead/follow no partner is required, though rotation between participants is encouraged. The lessons run as a 3wk mini-course (Footwork, Arms & Hands, Rotation) which may be commenced at any time.

Friday 6:30-7pm - Intro 4Beat Blues (Vic Park)

Cool Cats offers free lessons every week* at the Vic Park Bowling Club to introduce people to dancing. 4Beat Blues is a fun and versatile dance style that is easy to learn, but also provides the foundation for dancers to progress into other styles such as Swing, Rock 'n' Roll, and Rockabilly. The lessons run as a 3wk mini-course (Circles, Lines, Blues) which may be commenced at any time.

A great opportunity for anyone interested in dance!

Optional Rotation

 

Course Dependent - Some courses such as Aerials clearly require a dedicated partner, other courses such as Triples may be suitable for mix 'n' match, while some courses such as Timing and Technique may be suitable for individuals.

Optional Rotation - In these courses the bulk of the class will rotate and change partners. However, those dancers who wish to remain with their own partner while learning may do so with input provided by available class assistants. These are the best lessons to attend for those dancers without a regular partner. While it remains preferable to work with a partner to allow focus on specific skills, figures, and concepts, we realise this is not possible for everyone!

Preferable - Our courses are designed to develop from the basics, with all class participants introduced to the same figures and dance concepts. Unpartnered dancers are thus able to work with class instructors/assistants or other unpartnered dancers. Occasionally dancers will also be encouraged to tackle the lesson content with people other than their regular partner.

Recommended - General classes allow dancers to work on the style(s) they like, at their pace, to specific areas of focus. Clearly, this approach works best with a partner. However, unpartnered dancers (including beginners) are always welcome and class assistants are often available to work with you. According to availability and demand, class assistants and instructors may need to work with several individuals.

Required - A dedicated partner is typically required for appropriate training in more advanced dance elements such as Aerials, Triples, Advanced Kick-Step, & Double-Speed Rockabilly.
