Description
Fast Feet Fest runs over the first weekend of May, featuring three social dances and two days of classes with some of the UK’s best teachers.
We have a small quantity of early bird tickets available - when they’re gone, they’re gone!
Sign up for a full weekend pass including core classes in Collegiate Shag or Balboa, plus taster classes and all socials.
We recognise that different levels can mean a range of things across scenes and dance experience. We encourage you to read the level descriptions and place yourself on the track that most authentically reflects your experience and readiness to engage with teaching at that level.
If you’d like to discuss the levels or schedule with us, please contact us anytime and we’d be happy to help.
Explorer:
You are completely confident with standard footwork and basic moves and ready to take on your next challenge!
You have caught the bug for your chosen style and are ready to work on building up your technique and vocabulary. You have probably been attending classes regularly for at least a year and have been to a couple of workshops or weekend festivals.
Adventurer:
You are in love with this dance and feel confident at higher tempos. You have been dancing for at least two years, perhaps travelling to international festivals or spending time practicing or teaching in your local scene.
You’re comfortable finding musicality and breaks in the music, working on styling and enjoying improvising with a partner.
