Frequently asked questions

WHY DANCE?

For starters, it is a lot of fun! Aside from fun, dancing has so much more to offer than just a good time. Exercise, stress relief, self-confidence, social poise, and a creative outlet are amongst the many benefits you can receive from dancing. We highly believe that Dance is the latest best stress relieving therapy! We also believe that Dance challenges children, teens, and adults to learn a new skill and expand their understanding of music and world cultures.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE ME TO BECOME A GOOD DANCER?

At VIVA, we guarantee that you will quickly establish confidence with the basic steps of dancing. However, the longer you dance the better dancer you will become. As your dance education continues, you will engage in advanced steps and styling that will have you looking and feeling like the dancer you want to be!

WHAT IF I CAN’T MAKE MY APPOINTMENT?

We request 24h notice on all appointments. If we have confirmed a lesson for you, we are turning away other requests for that day and time.

CAN I FOCUS ON MORE THAN ONE DANCE AT A TIME?

All of the dances at the VIVA are interrelated. It is just as easy to learn 3-4 dances as it is to learn 1-2. In most dance situations, you will need to know a variety of steps in a multitude of dances.

DO I NEED A DANCE PARTNER FOR adult dance classes?

Though a partner is recommended, it is not mandatory. There are always others in the class that may not have a partner as well. Our instructors will rotate partners and make sure everyone is able to practice what they have learned with a partner. Our instructors will also pair up with students to make sure that he or she feels comfortable with the moves taught.

What should I wear to a fitness class?

We recommend wearing workout attire and sneakers.

What if I am new to working out?

All fitness levels are welcome! Our instructors are knowledgeable in tailoring group workouts to your needs. In other words, there will always be a modification in case you need it.
