Dancesport is an opportunity for students to learn ballroom and Latin dancing. It is suitable for both beginners and experienced dancers. Students will learn four routines: Cha Cha Cha, Samba, Rhythm Foxtrot, and Jive. These routines are traditionally partnered dances, therefore students will be expected to practice and perform with a partner.

Dancesport is a 13 week commitment. All students who register will attend TWO lessons a week for all of Term 3 and the first two weeks of Term 4. These lessons are in preparation for the North Harbour Dancesport competition on Tuesday 2nd November. This competition is a fantastic opportunity for students to showcase their routines as well as view performances from professional dancers (usually from TV’s Dancing With The Stars).

Registration for Dancesport will be done through the NX Online Shop.

Fees

There will be a total of 23 lessons at $5.00 per lesson. 

Total cost is $115.00, paid upfront as part of the registration process.

Additional costs with attending the NH competition will be called for at the time.
