COVID-19 update
We would like and we are allowed to dance with you again! But there are a few changes and rules for our courses to follow:

IMPORTANT: You must be tested, recovered or vaccinated to participate in the workshop!

There will be no change of dance partners during the lessons. Therefore it is best to register with a permanent dance partner of your choice! If you register as a single follower or leader, you will be assigned a permanent dance partner for the whole course.
Inside the building (also staircase and toilets) masks are compulsory. When dancing, wearing masks is voluntary.
Wash your hands thoroughly before and after the class and during the breaks. We also provide disinfectant.
Dance only in the area assigned to you and keep the minimum distance to the other couples.
Dancers with symptoms of illness or contact with corona infected people must stay at home!

Lead or Follow?

Although this dance is not gender specific and anyone can lead or follow you will find most dancers follow the same pattern in the old movies where the lead is the gentleman and the follow is the lady. Choose your ticket accordingly but once again we don't mind what role you do. The day is a great way to meet some fun people.

Useful tips

Best is to bring an extra pair of comfortable shoes, no high heels and the sole shouldn´t be to slippery
Please don´t dance in street shoes as this venue is also used by kids
T-shirt with half long arms is good, also second for change is always good to have, please no tank tops or something similar
During the breaks you´ll find a lot of food around.
To get a recap of the whole day bring you cameras
