Ballroom Dancing Classes

If the Strictly Come Dancing bug has bit, but you feel you’re not too quick to learn new skills, then head over here. Marcel’s class is definitely for beginners and he takes things very slowly, which I love. He breaks down a basic step into a series of moves, which you practice and practice before adding the next bit. In the first hour’s class we learned the foxtrot basic step, that’s it. But we were very happy and we didn’t feel like class was progressing too slowly (and this isn’t even our first ballroom class).
Marcel is a hoot to watch teach. I could definitely see a character like him appearing on a BBC comedy. He takes what he does seriously and wastes no time with banter. Instead he focuses on getting everyone dancing correctly. I believe you must have a partner to attend the classes, as you don’t switch partners during class.
70 quid per person for 8 weeks of hour-​long classes.
