Description
What if I can’t participate every week?
Absences from classes can be made up during the same term in any other class or drop-in session. This way, no dance session will be wasted! Read more.
What should I bring with me?
For the class, it is recommended to wear clothes that are comfortable to move around in. You can dance with indoor sneakers, dance shoes, or socks. Also take a water bottle with you and remember to drink enough after class.
Shuffle
Shuffle dance is a fast-paced, foot-focused street dance that was born in Melbourne, Australia in the 1980s. It is often danced to EDM, Techno and House. Shuffle is a fun way to move, and it improves coordination and especially strengthens the leg muscles. Iida’s Shuffle classes have an encouraging and cheerful atmosphere.
Iida Aalto
Iida is a 26-year-old shuffle dancer and teacher from Turku. Iida started learning shuffle by watching YouTube videos and attending a few workshops. Later, she began taking various online courses and private lessons from teachers around the world. Her style is a mix of Melbourne shuffle and cutting shapes.
Iida’s strength in shuffle dancing lies particularly in her technique, as she has spent a lot of time refining different movements. She likes to break movements down into pieces and study them. This is also reflected in her teaching style, as she goes through the moves step by step in her classes and focuses on practicing the correct technique. The classes involve a lot of repetition, but without forgetting to have fun.
The most important thing for Iida as a teacher is to create an encouraging atmosphere and ensure that everyone has a safe space to learn new things.
