Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and feel good.
For heels classes, we recommend high heels with ankle support. The best option for heels technique is a thin stiletto heel, but you can also dance in thicker heels. The sole of the shoe should be thin but firm, so a platform sole is not the best choice. However, do not stress about the shoes! However, please make sure that the soles of your dance shoes are clean and the heel caps are intact so that the floor of the hall is not damaged. Bring a water bottle with you as well.
The beginner’s course in heels introduces the basic elements of heels technique, such as walking, weight transfer, and alignment, with the aim of learning to dance in heels naturally and confidently. The classes begin with a varied warm-up, followed by practicing different techniques, such as walking and floor exercises. Towards the end of the class, you will learn simple, varied choreography that allows you to feel the fluidity of the movements and practice the techniques you have learned.
