Ballroom & Latin Dance Essentials 14 Nov 2026 Brussels

Six dances, six different feelings — one afternoon on the dance floor! 💃🕺

Discover the exhilarating movement of the Viennese Waltz, then enjoy an hour of dancing to the five ballroom and Latin styles we’ve explored throughout the year.

Something new to discover. Familiar rhythms to revisit. And plenty of music to keep you moving!

Discover a new dance — and rediscover five more

Each “Ballroom & Latin Dance Essentials” session is designed to give you that first real feeling of a dance — in just two hours.

Since March, we’ve explored the smooth elegance of the Slow Foxtrot (Slowfox), the light and joyful Quickstep, the playful rhythm of the Cha-Cha-Cha, the slow, expressive Rumba, and the graceful, flowing Slow Waltz.

For our final session of 2026, we’re bringing these dances together for a slightly different afternoon.

The first hour introduces the Viennese Waltz. The second hour is devoted to dancing, practising, and enjoying the music of the five dances we’ve already explored.

13:00–14:00 | Experience the Viennese Waltz

Feel the excitement of the Viennese Waltz — its lively three-beat rhythm, continuous turning, and exhilarating movement around the ballroom.

We’ll explore the travelling ballroom style, with its wider steps and sweeping movement across the floor.

During the first 45 minutes, our instructor will guide you through the right turn, building the movement step by step. If participants progress quickly, we may also introduce the left turn.

Then comes 15 minutes of practice to music — your opportunity to put the movements together and begin experiencing the characteristic flow of the Viennese Waltz.

This is a different approach from the more compact Viennese Waltz style taught at our Sunday “Waltz & Social Dance” events, where smaller movements are particularly useful on crowded dance floors.

14:00–15:00 | Five dances, five different moods!

Now let the music take over!

Slowfox, Quickstep, Cha-Cha-Cha, Rumba, Slow Waltz — five dances with their own rhythms, movements, and personalities.

We’ll play a continuous selection of music for each dance, giving you the opportunity to revisit what you’ve learned, refresh your memory, and enjoy moving to different rhythms.

And if you get stuck, have forgotten a step, or simply want to improve something, an instructor will be available throughout to answer questions and offer individual guidance.

It’s not another hour of formal instruction. It’s an opportunity to dance, experiment, practise, and enjoy yourself — with help available whenever you need it.

Why these sessions work

Developed in cooperation with Skylight Dance Club, our “Ballroom & Latin Dance Essentials” series offers practical, guided introductions to different ballroom and Latin dances.

The focus isn’t on memorising long routines or achieving perfect technique in a single afternoon.

It’s about discovering how each dance moves, recognising its music, and gradually building the confidence to join in when that music starts playing at a ball or social dance evening.

What you’ll take with you

• An introduction to the travelling ballroom-style Viennese Waltz, including its characteristic turning movement.

• An opportunity to revisit five different dances through music and practice.

• Individual guidance from an instructor whenever you need help.

• More familiarity with different rhythms and dance styles — and more confidence to step onto the floor.

Who this session is for

This session is ideal if you enjoy ballroom or social dancing, want to expand your dance repertoire, or would simply like to feel more at ease when the music changes.

If you’ve attended our earlier sessions, this is an opportunity to revisit those dances and bring them together.

If you’re joining us for the first time, you’re equally welcome. Some previous dance experience is helpful, but advanced experience isn’t required.

Come on your own or with a partner. Both are welcome.
