What to expect...

The music is the drive in this class and the tunes can be ANTHING fabulous from the 50's, 60' up - classical, nostalgic, cinematic and funky...pitched perfectly for women in their 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's! We all know how this joyous music drives us to dance better thus getting fitter.

There are about 75 women that take class at the studio across the week and it also is a great way to make new friends.

From time to time we are also socialise together as well - with dance parties to try out our routines (see picture!). It feels like a lovely community of people with a shared goal of learning new things, pushing the body to be its best and feeling creative through dancing.

Our MANTRA is 'MOTION IS LOTION AND REST IS RUST'

Ballroom dancing, Argentine Tango and Latin:

This is a thriving community of couples and pairs of friends who want to learn this wonderful and achievable style of social dancing.The Ballroom and Latin is 'social' and is described as a non - competitive version of the dancing you see on say 'Strictly'.

It is comprised of all the same dances like Foxtrot, Tango and Waltz and the Latin with Cha Cha and Rumba etc. But the beauty of social steps is they are created to be 'felt' rather than 'watched or/and judged'. There is no competing or awards but the actual big award is the joy of dancing with someone you love being with and learning a new, creative skill together! We actively encourage total beginners and many of the couples you will meet at one of our monthly dance socials actually started at the studio as complete beginners. These steps are designed to feel more gentle and logical.

We have an ongoing Monday 7pm group class - any level can join any time. Private lesson slots are worked out with the couple individually. These can make a great present for a loved one. All it takes is a bit of trust that you can give it a go and you will find out you CAN DANCE!

What they say...

"When we were looking for someone to help us create our wedding dance, GingerFred was the only place we wanted to go.

I first started going to GingerFred Dance Studio for Dancefit and Contemporary classes, so I already knew Lou was a great teacher, always enthusiastic and so friendly.

Even having chosen a slightly more obscure piece of music she helped create not just an amazing dance but more importantly memories.

The wedding dance on the day was loved by all of our family and friends but for us, the most special part was learning the dance and practising it in our tiny living room. Moments where we could laugh, mess-up, do over and over again and laugh some more. If anyone is thinking of choreographing their first dance, all I can say is do it! For the memories and experience, just make sure it's with Lou at GingerFred!"
