The class was amazing. It wasn't too big so it was easy to feel comfortable around everyone. The instructor taught well - I went in with literally no experience and picked up on everything (and I've never taken a dance course before so I'm not a natural trust me). The studio was very friendly and welcoming, all of them introducing me to themselves when I got there. 10/10 recommend. Definitely going back.

This is the BEST class. The choreography is stimulating but adaptable to different levels, the teacher is great, the students are excited and committed. I love it.
