Class Schedule
New to Latin Dance?
Start with Level 1 – Build Your Latin Dance Foundation
At Dance World, we encourage all new dancers to begin with our Level 1 classes (Wednesdays), which are designed to teach the essential fundamentals of Latin dance styles like Salsa and Bachata. These beginner-level classes focus on proper technique, timing, and partner connection — all of which are crucial for progressing confidently and safely.
Latin dance is a highly technical and structured art form. By starting at Level 1, dancers gain the foundational skills needed to enjoy the dance and move on to more advanced levels with ease. This approach also ensures that each class is filled with dancers of similar experience, creating a more comfortable and enjoyable learning environment for everyone.
Whether you're brand new or returning after a break, Level 1 is the perfect place to begin your journey with us.
BOOK YOUR
CLASSES
Dance World operates across two studio locations, and our class schedule may vary from month to month. To ensure you're heading to the correct studio and joining the right class level, we recommend double-checking both the location and class level before attending.
If you're booking through the MindBody app, be sure to check the studio name listed in the class title to avoid any mix-ups. Each schedule includes both locations, so a quick glance helps keep your experience smooth and stress-free!
What to know:
Bring indoor/dance shoes, no outside footwear allowed on the dance floor. No black sole sneakers allowed. (Ladies, only proper Latin dance heels allowed, please check for any protruding heel nails prior to class to avoid damaging the floors)
Bring your water bottle
Free street parking after 5:30pm
LEVELS
EXPLAINED
Not sure about your level? Here's a brief guideline! All students start at level 1 and progress from there. It's crucial to grasp the basics before moving on to higher levels.
-
This class is designed for new and beginner students aiming to learn the basics. We recommend that beginner students continue taking these classes until they master the fundamentals, including proper technique, timing, and body movement.
New beginners should start with Level 1 classes for a minimum of 3 months before progressing to Level 2.
-
Having mastered the basics, these classes place greater emphasis on proper techniques and fundamentals. They are ideal for beginner dancers who have become comfortable with their basics, timing, and body movements, and who now wish to expand their repertoire and learn new moves. Additionally, these classes offer experienced dancers an opportunity to revisit their fundamentals and techniques, and to gain extra practice.
-
These classes cater to experienced dancers seeking a stimulating challenge with an enjoyable demonstration. New moves and techniques are introduced in a dynamic, fast-paced setting.
You must have a strong grasp of the basics. Dancers who do not meet this level and join the classes may be asked to undergo an assessment.
-
Advanced level students are often those who have joined the Dance World company's training and competitive teams and train on a monthly basis. These teams travel to the Canada Salsa Congress in Toronto to compete at the Nationals and also participate in various events and performances across Canada.
We kindly ask that students attend classes corresponding to their level to ensure everyone has a fair chance to learn. If you're uncertain about your level, feel free to ask us for a quick assessment, and we'll be happy to help!
