Definitely not. We believe that there is no age limit to learning and enjoying dance for your own pleasure.
Of course! You are most welcome to give it a try and book an introductory dance lesson to find out if dancing is really what you want to do. Be reassured that there is no need to possess any special talent to join S&C Dabce. We believe that all adults can learn to dance with the expert guidance of our excellent dance instructors.
You do not need to have dance attire and shoes to start your dance course, as the selection of suitable dance attire and footwear can be discussed with your instructor during your first dance lesson. They will be able to make recommendations and advise on the best dance wear to purchase. Please do wear clothing that makes it easy for you to move in – that are not restricting your body in any way if possible!

It’s challenging to provide a specific timeframe as it depends on your individual abilities and goals. However, from our experience, we can say that you should be able to perform some basic dance routines after a few classes.
The duration of your dance course depends on your personal goals. After attending for a minimum of 3 months, your lessons can continue on an ongoing basis until you are satisfied with your dance skills or unable to continue your education. We need four teaching weeks for you to stop your dance classes. We do also have flexible options available without commitment for students who need a more flexible solution.
