What to expect from the Fast-Track classes at 7PM?
We run fast-track classes for different styles, like Collegiate Shag, Balboa, Blues or some of the standard choreographies like the Shim Sham, from 19:00-20:00.
As they are part of a course that builds on the week before, we advise you to attend these from the start if you haven’t tried the style/topic before. But hey, you’re always welcome to have a go if you missed a class!
