Frequently Asked Questions
What the FAQ?
Most common questions about memberships and courses are available here. If you have something else in mind, reach out to us with any query.
General Questions
How does the free trial work?
When you register for the 14 day free trial you will access to 5 courses: Introduction to Blues (Beginners Survival Kit); Close Embrace intensive (Essential Skills); Rhythm Toolkit (Musicality); The Spirit Moves Styling (Solo Skills); and Our favourite Moves (Vocabulary). We hope that these courses will give you an idea of how The Blues Room works and taking part in the courses will help you decide if online learning is for you 🙂
After the 14 day period has finished your free trial will end. At this point you will be able to select one of the membership options in order to continue dancing with us.
Is The Blues Room suitable for beginners?
Absolutely! We have a ‘Beginners Survival Kit’, specially designed for new dancers. Once you have completed all the courses in the Survival Kit you will be ready to try any of the other categories. All other courses are suitable for intermediate level dancers and above. All courses begin with more basic techniques and moves and progress in difficulty throughout the course.
Is The Blues Room suitable for advanced dancers?
Of course! Although advanced dancers may be familiar with some of the moves and techniques that are taught in the classes, there is always more to learn! Advanced dancers can enrich their vocabulary, get new ideas for combining moves, refine their fundamental techniques, pick up new tips and techniques, improve their solo and partnership skills, and develop their style. Dancers who are teaching or interested in teaching can discover new ways of breaking down and explaining moves, practice exercises that can be used in classes, and collect lots of new ideas for class content.
What if I don't have a partner?
Not a problem! We have a whole series of solo blues courses and solo blues choreographies, plus all the Practice With Us sessions and Top Tips are suitable for training solo. Many of the partnered classes also contain tips and techniques that can be practised solo. So if you don’t have a partner don’t let it stop you!
Woah! So many classes! Where should I start?
The Blues Room offers you flexibility, so you are in control of your learning. You can choose whichever course interests you the most, however we do have some recommendations…
If you are new to blues dancing then you should start with the Beginners Survival Kit. These courses will give you all the information you need to get out there and enjoy yourself on the dance floor.
For all other levels – improver, intermediate, advanced, masters (whatever label you like to use!) – we highly recommend starting with the Essential Skills category. The techniques and ideas explained in this series will underpin the majority of all our other classes.
Other than that you are free to choose your own adventure!
Can I download the videos?
No, sorry. The videos are only available online via internet connection.
