WHAT’S INCLUDED WITH YOUR BLOCK BOOKING
Everything that comes with a 5-week block
Live instruction, in person
Five 60-minute classes taught in the room with guidance and cues on technique.
Individual feedback for every student
A personal note at the end of the block on what’s working and what to focus on next (if you would like to receive it).
Recordings of the combinations
Video of each combination and of the choreography as it builds, shared with your block’s group.
The class WhatsApp group
For sharing updates, the music we’re working with, or playlists for practising.
Each week’s combinations build into a choreography
Each week builds on the last, so you’ll leave with a full choreography at the end of the term.
It takes a few weeks to settle into the movements, which is how skills, muscle memory and confidence build over a block.
If you miss a class, you’ll still get a video of that week’s combination, and I’m always happy to help you catch up.
PRIVATE CLASSES
One-to-one and small group lessons
Sometimes a weekly group class isn’t the right fit. Private lessons let us work at exactly your pace on exactly what you want, whether that’s starting somewhere quieter than a full room or going deep on something specific.
