International Standards
 

Care is taken to ensure that the dances are taught adhering to International Standards. ISTD (Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing) and IDTA (International Dance Teachers Association) are the two world bodies whose guidelines are followed the world over in terms of course content and technique. DanceSport is the world body which is looked upon as a reference for performance parameters. We receive entry forms to send participants from India for certain international competitions and performances. We also have listings on international websites as a Latin, Salsa and Standard Ballroom Dance Institute.
Resource Center
 
We are proud to have a resource center in which we have a vast collection of international manuals, books, videos, music and other instructional as well as descriptive material on dance. Our resource center is constantly updated by the purchase of the best available material world-wide
Who could you be ?
 
You could be an institute wanting to conduct a workshop for your students, of a corporate wanting to do a course for your employees. As a hotel you feel you want a salsa package for your guests, or a gymnasium wanting to offer more to your customers. You could be a concerned parent, worried about your child’s development or an event management company wanting a saleable product. You could be an individual wanting to learn yourself. You could be anyone … you could be YOU !
If you have the desire, then we have the eagerness to tie-up with you !

What could we offer you ?
 
Complete Customization, to start with. We can conduct workshops and courses of any duration, at any place, and for as many people as you may want. We could devise a plan which would be completely suited to your need. 
What would be the content of the Workshops and Courses ?
 
Workshops focus on Fun. They usually involve an introduction to a particular dance style and a few basic steps. The number of people that can be accommodated in a workshop is much larger than a course. Workshops may also be intensive over a few days to learn much more.
Courses are much more in-depth with sustained interaction over time. Though the element of fun is retained, an underlying level of seriousness is what comes in. A course accommodates fewer students and many more dances and moves are covered. Courses may sometimes stretch over months or sometimes be encapsulated to fit a few days or weeks.


Methodology
 

Fun! Our objective is to ensure that everyone has lots of fun and everything that we do is aimed at that. Our environment and attitude towards participants is very light, easy and informal. Our classes are always high on energy-levels. While at the base of it we are extremely professional in delivering quality, we always want people to laugh with us all the time!
