Where do you teach private lessons?

Most of our private lessons are held at dance studios downtown or midtown Toronto. We sometimes conduct private lessons in students' fitness room if within GTA. Contact the instructor directly for location options. Visit our STUDIO page for locations we often teach out of.

Can I bring a friend to a private lesson?

No. To maintain focus and optimal productivity, family, friends, and pets are not permitted to attend private lessons.

What do I wear to a private lesson?

Dress comfortably. For most material taught in private lessons, jeans and a t-shirt are fine. Wear something that allows you to lift your arms over your head.

What shoes should I wear to a private lesson?

Slippery soled shoes are best. For women, high heels with an ankle strap. No flip flops or slip-on shoes.

I have a group of friends who would like to set up a class together. How to I do that?
