Frequently asked questions

What To Wear +
Wondering what to wear? Keep it comfortable and easy to move in. Something that lets you stretch and turn. Avoid super tight clothes or anything that restricts movement. You don't need special dancewear. Just come ready to move.
What To Expect +
In your first Danza session, you'll learn basic steps, posture, and timing, all at a pace that feels comfortable. You don't need a partner. Our instructors will match you up and guide you through every move. We will have you dancing in minutes. Just bring a smile and a willingness to try.
What Is The Buddy System +
A dance school buddy system involves pairing a student with a designated buddy instructor. This teaches you how to effectively lead and follow. By consistently working with a partner who is also a coach, students quickly learn to adapt to different styles, timing, and nonverbal communication cues through lead and follow.
What Kind Of Shoes +
Shoes make a big difference. Smooth soled shoes help you turn easily and protect the floor. For ballroom, leather or suede soles are great. Avoid rubber soles. They can stick. As you keep dancing, you'll find styles that fit your comfort and balance best. Ask your instructor. We sell shoes.
What are Danza SpotLights +
Our Danza spotlight shows are exciting opportunities for students to showcase their progress and passion for dance. Open to participants of all skill levels, these performances are designed to be celebratory, not competitive. Each show helps students build confidence and enjoy the thrill of performing in front of a supportive audience, culminating their hard work in a memorable, joyous event.
How Long Will It Take Me To Learn +
Dance mastery varies from student to student, but typically, you'll notice improvements after just a few weeks of consistent classes and practice. With regular attendance and enthusiasm, many students feel confident at our Danza parties within the first couple of months. Remember, it's about enjoying the process as much as the progress.
What are DanzaGroups +
Group classes are the heart of Danza Academy, happening several times a week. Each class focuses on a specific dance style, allowing you to learn new steps and refine your technique in a lively social environment. Our friendly instructors rotate partners, ensuring everyone connects and grows together. Whether you're starting fresh or brushing up, group classes offer a fun and communal way to develop your Danza skills.
Is There A Guarantee +
We believe in the quality of our dance instruction at Danza Academy. Our guarantee: if you participate in all scheduled classes and practice sessions but don't see progress or feel more confident within three months, we'll provide additional coaching at no cost. Our commitment is ensuring you not only learn but enjoy your journey with us.
