Level Descriptions
Below you’ll find a short description of our levels.
The teaching and level varies from instructor to instructor, depending on their individual methods. We always recommend taking a trial class to get the best sense of which class suits you best.
beginner level
Teachers: Atif, Cece, Datif The Great, Emma Minella, & Veronica Magnani
Beginner level is a great place to start if you’ve never danced before. You’ll have the opportunity to explore and develop your skills while connecting more deeply with your body. You’ll receive a thorough introduction to the style, basic steps, and rhythms in a safe and supportive environment. More experienced dancers are also welcome if you wish to dive into fundamental work and details.
open level
Teachers: Alky Plus, Atif, Cece, Datif The Great, Nadine Zaucou, Natasha Jacoby & Sandra Sebit
Open level is suitable for dancers of all levels. The instructor teaches steps and choreography with a focus on movement quality, ensuring that everyone benefits from the class. If you’re completely new, it’s like jumping onto a moving train – be ready to join something already in motion. With the wide range of experience among participants, you’ll quickly notice your own progress and be swept up by the energy and atmosphere. The class is adapted to the group, giving you the chance to challenge yourself at your own pace.
Intermediate
Teachers: Datif The Great, Emma Minella, Natasha Jacoby & Various Jamaican Teachers
Intermediate level is for those who already have body awareness. You don’t need prior knowledge of the style, but it’s expected that you’ve danced before or have other movement experience. The focus is on technique, timing, and performance, and you’ll be challenged both choreographically and musically. You’ll have the opportunity to refine your skills and expand your movement repertoire.
Advanced
Teachers: Atif
Advanced is for dancers with a strong foundation who are ready to take their dancing to the next level. At this level, we work with choreography, drills, technique, musicality, groove and performance. There is room to dive into the details, being curious and really develop as a dancer.
Dancers at this level are expected to be engaged, practice and be willing to dive deeper into dance – both in and outside of class. You don’t have to know everything, but you should be ready to challenge yourself, learn more and put effort into your own development.
