Why should I dance?

According to science, dance is the most superior form of exercise for boosting your overall mental, physical and cognitive wellbeing. It’s cardio, endorphins, self-expression and human connection via our community all in one.

Where can I learn to dance near me?

Well at first we began with weekly Sydney beginner adult dance classes in our signature ‘no mirror, dim lights’ format. These classes currently run in the inner west and have built a small, dedicated weekly following (so get your tickets quick).

Are there online dance classes?

YES! And they’re made for beginners specifically.

With so many global followers getting serious FOMO, we decided to transfer that local Sydney dance class magic to an online beginner dance course series, so you can do virtual dance lessons and tutorials in your own time and in your own space because it has the ability to pause, rewind and replay videos no matter where you’re based in the world, or what your schedule looks like.

What kind of dance styles will I learn at a Groove Therapy beginner adult dance class?

Groove Therapy mainly offers beginner hip hop dance classes and a mixed bag of other street dance beginner classes.

Street dance is any form of dance that is created outside the formal dance studio context. So think of hip hop, vogue, dancehall, Afrobeat, reggaeton and house.

A Groove Therapy class will often focus mostly on the basics of grooving (how to nod your head, bounce, body roll and generally add flavour and soul to your dancing), combined with party dances and dance floor steps (like the running man, moonwalk, hip mobility and isolation techniques).

Who can take a beginner dance class at Groove Therapy?

Our dance classes are designed specifically for that person who has always wanted to try a dance class but perhaps feels too intimidated/old/uncoordinated/curvy to step into a traditional dance studio. We also see a range of people who took dance class as kids, then fell off the bandwagon, losing their sense of confidence and body-mind connection along the way.

Whether you just want to come to shake off a stressful week, or you’d like to one day work your way up to regularly taking more intermediate and advanced dance classes at other studios, Groove Therapy is a great gentle introduction to the dance class experience.

How Does the Weekly Beginner Dance Class Format Work?

Our weekly beginner adult dance classes across Sydney are a dim lights, no mirror and judgement-free space that equips you with practical and legit skills for your next dance floor encounter.

Our beginner adult dance classes run in Sydney each week and follow a simple format: warm up with some grooves, stretch it out a little, learn some party dances and then have a solid dance by stringing together what you’ve learnt in a little combo. 

All the stuff you learn in class can be used on the dance floor, in your bedroom, whilst waiting for your kettle to boil, at the bus stop and in most shopping aisles. Practical life skills bebes.

How Does The Online Course Work?

The online course is a combination of video tutorials, bonus playlists to practise to (so you don’t get bored) and extra written resources and inspo links.

You can pause, rewind and replay videos at different speeds so that dance class is truly on your own terms. Go check out the online dance course in more detail here.
