Questions before
your first class?
Starting something new should feel exciting — not confusing. Here are the answers to the questions we hear most often from new San Tropez students.
VIEW CLASS SCHEDULE →Unlimited Classes
Try different classes, meet our instructors and experience San Tropez before choosing the membership that works best for you.
01 I've never danced before. Where should I start?
You are exactly who our beginner classes are designed for. Start with Level 1 Salsa and Bachata and learn the basic steps, timing and partner connection progressively. No previous dance experience is necessary.
02 Do I need to bring a dance partner?
No. Most students come on their own. In partner-dance classes we rotate partners regularly, which helps you learn to lead or follow with different people and makes it easy to meet other students.
03 How does the $39 Intro Offer work?
The Intro Offer gives new students 14 days of unlimited eligible classes for $39. Your 14-day period begins with the first class you attend rather than the day you make the purchase.
If you decide to continue while your Intro Offer is still active, the $39 may be applied toward an eligible ongoing membership.
04 What is the $20 private-class upgrade?
When purchasing the Intro Offer, you can add one 30-minute private lesson for only $20. It is a great opportunity to work individually with an instructor, review the fundamentals and get personalized feedback.
05 What should I wear to class?
Wear something comfortable that allows you to move freely. For your first class, clean indoor shoes that stay securely on your feet are fine. As you progress, proper dance shoes can make turning and movement much easier.
VISIT OUR DANCE SHOE BOUTIQUE →06 Can I try a class before committing to a membership?
Absolutely. New students can start with our Intro Offer, and individual drop-in classes are also available for selected classes. The Intro Offer gives you the best opportunity to experience several classes and instructors before deciding how you would like to continue.
07 What happens after my Intro Offer?
If you want to keep dancing, you can choose the option that best matches how often you want to attend — including monthly memberships, class packages and specialty training.
If you purchase an eligible ongoing membership while your Intro Offer is active, your $39 Intro Offer payment can be credited toward that membership.
08 When can I start?
Check our current class schedule to find the best beginner class for you. Once your purchase is activated, you can begin attending eligible classes according to the schedule.
