Update on levels in Bath, March 2026

 


We are stretching the range of our teaching in Bath, from March 2026.

The idea is to level up all of our students, while keeping the first hour beginner-friendly.

For simplicity we are numbering the levels like so:

0 = absolute beginner 

1 = foundation
can do the basic step, turns.  needs help with timing, holds, poise, or frame

2 = flow
good timing and hold.  needs help with executing move combinations and/or making the dance flow

3 = improver
can confidently connect with their partner and execute a comfortable dance.  needs help with musicality, sensual moves

4 = upper improver/lower intermediate
creates a fun dance with their partner (leader or follower) with great musicality.  needs additional challenges like 'wow' moves

The first class in Bath is levels 0/1 all in one circle (we do adapt to absolute beginners if they attend and go at their pace, but go at level 1+ if there are no absolute beginners in the class).

The second class will be split, teachers being available:

level 2 : we go at level 2 pace.  level 1 students are welcome to attend but may find it challenging.

level 3+ : we go at level 3 pace.  we will only accept level 3+4 students.

As always, feedback is welcome.
