To quote Bob Marley "dont worry, be happy". Mainly, don't worry because no dance experience is required and you are in good hands. No fancy footwear or dance apparel is needed unless preferred. Below states the timetable for the trial classes starting from the 10th february till the 17th february.


Last but not least, don't hesitate to ask any dancers for assistance or enquiries. Who would know our club better than the members itself~ (:

Before he left, he thought it would be appropriate to pass as much of his knowledge as possible to the new generation of juniors. He had a total of 4 classes, each class lasting up to 3 hours long, his first class commenced on the 14th of March. Amongst the many useful things that he taught, was the waltz, basics in choreographing, as well as a guide to free styling.

On Monday; the first class, he gave us tips on choreography, mainly tips on creating and editing formations, so that the audience could see the shapes that were intended, rather than just a jumbled mess of limbs and colours.

After the choreography session, he gave us a basic lesson on waltz, which both Juniors and Seniors had fun, seeing that not many of them have ever partnered with someone to dance before.

On the second and third class, Tuesday and Wednesday, Ian’s lesson for us was free styling. The main things he taught was to diversify our moves, adding shapes, height changes as well as crowd interaction. Basically training us to be head turners when we dance.

On Thursday, he was cleaning up our freestyle, giving us moves to add into our usual repertoire to add a spark of life. After a short free style session, we were thrown into a Dance Battle, which was severely imbalanced; with nearly 3 quarters of the participants against the rest. It was extremely fun nonetheless.

A: Hip Hop starts on Monday the 16th of March, as the 9th is a public holiday. Popping starts on Tuesday the 10th, and B-Boying starts on Wednesday the 11th. Latin classes for the month have already started. As for Ballroom classes...

A: We currently have one Ballroom class, from 4-5pm on Thursday, the class unfortunately is not open to newcomers. However, we have received a lot of requests for a new class, and so we hope to start one by April. Anyone interested should let us know as soon as possible, as places for the class are limited to 10 guys and 10 girls.

A: These three classes will cover the foundations of street dancing. Each class will begin by teaching basic movement and techniques, and eventually move on to choreography and routines.

A: To be updated.

A: No comment. They're both probably better than you though.

A: Latin classes teach the basics of a different style of Latin every month. So far our members have done Samba in January and Cha Cha in February. This month's lessons will cover Rock and Roll.

A: To be updated.

A: To be updated.

A: Starting in April, the club will be implementing a new payment system.

Classes will start during the first week of every month. During the last week of the previous month, students wishing to join the class may submit the class fee for the coming month. This will place their names on the class list. Those who do not have their names on the list or who do not bring payment at the door may be denied entry into the class.

For students who are already part of the class, payment may be made during the last two weeks of the previous month to reserve their place in the class.

A: Example: Biscuit is a student in both Hip Hop and Popping classes in September.

In October, he wants to continue Popping and take up Latin. So in the third (second last) week of September, he pays for Popping class in October to guarantee himself a place in the class. He does not pay for Hip Hop. In the last week of September, he pays for Latin class in October so he can join the class when it starts.

However, at the last minute he decides he wants to continue Hip Hop so he comes for the first Hip Hop class in October, bringing his payment so he can enter the class.

A: Yes. The club needs facilities, unfortunately, and to get those facilities we need funds. Currently, 100% of the fees that you pay go to the instructor. Starting in April, the club plans to raise fees for each class by RM5. This money will go towards the purchase of mirrors (and stuff).

A: If you feel that way, talk to us directly. We won't force you to pay something you can't afford. Not that we think RM5 is a lot of money, but if we think you really can't spare the cash we'll let you off.

A: Maybe, but we'll have to think about that.

A: We will notify you on an individual basis. We don't really have a fixed venue for the classes yet (this is why we need your financial support).
