Now we know how it works, would you like more details right? The juicy bits, the way it makes you feel when you learn new moves, how are the vibes of the community? Will my skills improve?
Firstly, anyone that joins is a follower and when they progress becomes a leader, which is pretty epic so you can learn both lead and following as a dancer.
The workshops and social dance parties are spicy as, lots of flavour, positive attitude on the dance floor, by creating your signature moves, your own recipe, your own unique style so you can own it on the dance floor
The studio has it set up to have 3 classes in a row of the same style while building layers to tie into each other, so a student can progress through each class by learning musicality, body isolation, styling, footwork, body and head rolls.
Having 45min dance class isn't enough, but having 3 in a row and a bit of social dancing afterwards,it's like having a meal at a restaurant.
*Entree: a plate of mouth-watering dance warm ups then inviting your body for techniques and movements and some combos. Once the music starts buzzing in your ears, you want your main next.
*Main: Served as spicy as you can get, repeat of body warm ups and isolations, tantalising new footwork, styling and combinations, leaving a burning taste on your dance toes.
*Dessert: Infused with the last 2 classes, dessert is served of rich and smooth footwork and more unique combinations, bringing out a a sweet sensational signature move you thought you never had.
*Coffee: Thought you were full with dessert? No no no, they offer some social dancing to practice some freestyling, your body and feet will eventually leave the studio on a high.
Dance Amor has a dance community for you, they will support and welcome you to feel more confident on the dance floor at social events as well as most importantly, the community is warm and friendly by keeping in touch through their apps of communication.
