What to Bring?
A willingness to learn, laugh, and connect!
Comfortable clothing
Leather-soled shoes or smooth-soled shoes
Water

Do I need any dance experience to attend?
Not at all! Our classes are designed especially for beginners. If you think you have “two left feet,” you’re in the right place. We teach step-by-step, make it fun, and support you the whole way.

Do I need to bring a dance partner?
No partner needed! Gerard and Shauna both lead and follow, so you’ll always have support during your lesson. You’re also welcome to bring a partner at no additional cost.

What should I wear? / Do I need special shoes?
Wear comfortable clothes you can move in. Smooth-soled or leather-soled shoes work great. No heels or dance shoes required. Try to avoid rubber soles or flip-flops.

Is this a welcoming space for all identities?
Absolutely. Respect, consent, and mutual care are central to how we teach and move together. We create inclusive spaces for all identities, bodies, expressions, and backgrounds. In our teaching, dance roles are not tied to gender or gender expression. You are free to dance in whatever role feels right to you (lead and/or follow).

What if I feel nervous or shy about dancing?
You’re not alone. Many of our students start out feeling unsure. We create a warm, judgment-free environment where learning feels joyful, supportive, and fun.

My partner dances, but I don’t. Can we take a private lesson together?
Absolutely. Mixed-experience couples are welcome in private lessons. We tailor each session so both partners feel supported, whether you’re brand new or more experienced. Our goal is to meet you where you are and help you both grow together through movement, connection, and musicality.
