Ballroom Dance Instructional

This is an instructor-led program for students who would like to learn and

improve their dancing skills. Our instructors are well qualified to teach and

coach students. As such, students have to pay to join. There are 3 classes:

level 1 (L1), Level 2 (L2) and level 3 (L3).

L1 is the beginners’ class (Pre-Bronze/Bronze) involving learning basic steps

and weight shifting.

L2 is the intermediate class (Bronze/Silver level) with emphasis on proper

posture/technique and more advanced steps. Students are expected to know how to

dance or have prior dancing experience.

L3 is the advanced class (Gold/Open) with emphasis on effective communication, lead

& follow between partners. Students are expected to know the basic steps so that

instructors do not have to spend extra time teaching again the basics.

Dances will include International Standard (Waltz, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Tango etc) and

Latin (Rumba, Cha-cha, Jive, Samba etc.). A minimum of 5 couples is required for any

class to be started and the maximum number of couples is 14 based on the current

size of our venue.

Students must be members as a pre-requisite to join this program. For detailed

information, please contact Adolf Shum (kcshummotm@gmail.com)
