Mauricio was very professional and guided me through the fundamentals of bachata, which is now allowing me to learn intermediate steps, both with foot and turns, which is my goal when I contacted him.

FAQ's

🎵 Why do dance teachers start counting from 5 rather than 1?

Using 5-6-7-8 separates the preparation from the dance itself, which always starts on count 1.

  • The underlying pulse of most songs divides into sets of four counts.
  • An 8-count phrase covers two bars of music and helps structure movement sequences.
  • Counting 5-6-7-8 alerts everyone that the choreography will start on the next beat 1.

It works like a starting signal so nobody misses the first step.

💰 What is the price of dance classes in Durham?

A private dance lesson in Durham generally runs about £20/h.

This price can vary depending on several factors:

  • The student's level (newcomer through to experienced dancer)
  • The teacher's experience and qualifications (industry certifications and teaching experience)
  • The length and frequency of your sessions
  • The lesson format (online, at home or in a studio)

Quite a few instructors provide a free trial lesson so you can test their teaching style before committing.

💃 Which dance is easiest for a complete beginner?

Street dance and hip-hop appeal to beginners who enjoy energetic, freestyle movement.

  • Partner dances like salsa develop rhythm awareness and connection with a lead or follow.
  • These styles encourage personal expression and adapt well to any fitness level.
  • Ballet and contemporary build posture, core strength and body control over time.

Your ideal dance matches your personality and the music you love.
