*since Ceroc is new to the U.S., we will be holding a 2nd beginners night for the first 4 weeks or so that way everyone gets a hang of it.
With the exception of Party Nights, all Ceroc classes follow exactly the same format:
Beginners Class:
The night starts with a Beginners Class lasting 45 minutes. You will learn 4 fun moves that are surprisingly simple. At the end of the class the DJ plays two or three records and you can practice and dance the moves you have just learnt.
Intermediate Class:
The Beginners Class is followed by the more challenging Intermediate class. In this 30 minute session you will learn 3 or 4 harder moves. We normally recommend that it takes about 5 or 6 beginners classes to master the basic moves and feel comfortable to join in at Intermediate level. This is an ideal time for Beginners to sit back and watch whilst having a drink.
Beginners Refresher Class
Some venues, depending on the layout of the venue, also offer a second beginners class which runs at the same time as the Intermediate class. This smaller class includes a review of the moves you have learnt earlier in the night.
WHO’S WHO AT A CEROC NIGHT?
Teacher - Just like Master Miyagi, you learn everything from your teacher! All Ceroc Teachers have undergone intensive training and are qualified as members of the Ceroc Teachers Association. There are just over 150 instructors throughout the entire world. Their qualifications ensure that we give you the best possible expertise. Teachers are keen for you to enjoy the night, so why not grab one for a dance after the class.
Taxi Dancer - In addition to the teachers, we have 'Taxi Dancers' who are on hand to help you go through the moves and provide useful hints so that you will soon be dancing with confidence.
They are a specially selected, friendly group of regular dancers who are specifically there to dance with beginners. Taxi Dancers are easy to spot as they wear distinctive t-shirts. They are great help during your first few weeks of attending Ceroc, and they are on duty all evening, so make sure you hail one!
DJ - Ceroc DJ's have a play list ranging from old classics through to your favorite new chart hits. They select great songs that you'll love and that will optimize your dance experience.
Door Person - These people are your least favorite... they take your money! But be nice to them, they decide whether you get in to the night or not! :) The door staff and venue manager are on hand to run the night. They oversee admissions and new members. Please ask your door staff for information or leaflets about workshops and freestyles in your area.
Freestyle:
After the Intermediate class the night out really takes off when the Ceroc DJ takes control for the 'Freestyle Session'. This is a 1 1/2 - 2 hour period of pure uninterrupted Ceroc music creating a party atmosphere. You can socialize with a drink at the bar or practice your Ceroc moves and dance the night away.
Dancing during the 'Freestyle' really gives you chance to improve your Ceroc style and soak up the atmosphere... it's addictive!
