Ceroc Christchurch

Intermediate Classes

Variety and Challenge

Once you are confident dancing all the beginner moves then you may be interested in moving up to intermediate level where we present more challenging moves to spice up your repertoire. An assessment is compulsory for attendance at these classes.

We teach 3 moves, one of which may be repeated from the previous week and the third move will be more difficult than the first two and may include a dip or drop.

The class is 30 minutes long and is followed by a 15 minute review for those looking for personal assistance from the teacher.

The flexibility of Ceroc means that you can attend any intermediate class on any night of the week, you can skip a week or go more than once a week, it doesn't matter. Advanced dancers use these classes to support new intermediates and to work on their own timing, posture and technique.

Main Points

  • Fun! As with Beginners, our classes are entertaining as well as informative.
  • Safe learning environment with trained and talented teachers.
  • Freestyleable - you can dance intermediate moves with anyone else who has good lead / follow skills.
  • 1 move is repeated from the previous week.
  • Moves are repeated several times throughout the year.
  • Review session afterwards with the teacher and demo.

Assessment

To ensure your safety and that of other dancers, all attendees must have been assessed as ready for intermediate by a certified Ceroc teacher.

We are here to help! We want you to improve and grow and continue to enjoy your time spent at Ceroc, therefore the assessment can be a little bit like a private lesson during freestyle. Feel free to ask a teacher for a dance to get any assistance with your dancing.

The benefits of the assessment are:

  • Personal coaching.
  • Extra technique and style tips.
  • Expert advice.
