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 structured 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.
