Frequently asked questions
Yes, we do have a drop in option $20 cash or etransfer at the door but the best bang for your buck is to register for all 3 classes as a trilogy package.
Clean indoor only shoes in good repair that you can bring with you to change into would be fine. If you have Latin/ballroom shoes this is a bonus, but not a requirement.
