Do I need any prior dance experience?

Absolutely not.  Everyone has to start somewhere and no one is a born dancer so do not be shy…we are very beginner friendly!

What type of shoes should I wear?

Leather soled or suede soled shoes are best for ease of movement and dance comfort.  Ladies might also want to wear a low heel.  In any case, sneakers and hiking boots are not good.

What about clothing?

Clothing is required!  Be comfortable but not restricted and remember you will get warmer as you dance.
