Learn, laugh and build real social-dance foundations in a structured course designed to take you from complete beginner to confidently understanding the basics.
Beginners: 0-2 months experience
This course is designed for adults starting from scratch. You’ll learn the foundations in a relaxed, social environment and build skills you can actually use on a Latin dance floor.
Come by yourself, with a partner or with friends. In partnered classes we rotate regularly so everyone gets the opportunity to learn connection, leading and following with different people.
Each class builds on the previous week so you can develop the technique, vocabulary and confidence appropriate to this course level.

Your complete 8-week course
One enrolment reserves your place for the complete course at the same weekly time.
Elite will be closed for classes from Monday 21 December to Sunday 3 January. Your course pauses during this period and recommences after the break — the class dates below already allow for the closure.
Staying on the Gold Coast? There will still be plenty of Latin dance parties over the break, and we’ll organise opportunities for the group to attend together.
You are building the next stage of your dancing now. Keep progressing through the pathway as your skills, confidence and social-dance experience grow.
Build your first Salsa and Bachata foundations, learn how partner dancing works and discover which style - or styles - you want to explore next.
Build your Beginners foundation in your chosen style across a structured 8-week course, with each class adding to the skills from the week before.
Move into a 6-month Experienced dancers syllabus in your chosen style, building a broader vocabulary, stronger technique, connection, musicality and confidence on the social floor.
Progress into another 6-month Intermediate syllabus, developing more advanced partnerwork, technique, movement and musical interpretation.
For dancers who want to keep progressing, there is no single finish line. Build advanced skills through the options that match your goals.
AI can make mistakes. For unusual requests, we'll pass your question to the Elite team.
