Levels
Choose your level carefully and be honest with your abilities.
Level descriptions tell you which classes you’ll get the most out of - nothing more!
The level you’re in:
- doesn’t make you more or less cool/smart/likeable!
- means absolutely nothing about how people perceive you as a person!
- is not an indication of how fun dancing with you can be!
Attending a level higher than your abilities can end up being disappointing!
It is common for people to expect higher levels to include fancier moves etc.
In reality, classes often include the same material between levels but focus on subtle but significant details which you might miss if you don’t have a good understanding of the underlying techniques.
