We offer multi-levelled workshops throughout the weekend. Each level gets 5 hours of workshop plus additional open level workshops. 

PLEASE NOTE: We do not allow participants to jump between leveled workshops, this means if you are level 3 you cannot attend level 1-2, 4 or 5 workshops. This is due to balance of the workshops, space limitations and most importantly respect of the levels.

Please read the level descriptions carefully before choosing the appropriate group for you. We will scan all registration to check WSDC levels.
If you want more workshops you can attend our SNOW EXTREME which gives you 4 more workshops! Click on Extreme in the menu (under Event info) to read more.

Audition

The audition is for those who would like to attend classes of higher levels, but do not have the required WSDC points to qualify. If you would like to audition to a higher level of classes you will have to go to the audition, check the schedule to see when and where, and dance your way to the desired level. You will get a few songs and you will rotate partners to get a chance to show your skills. The pro’s will decide who gets to move up.

Level 1-2

This level will have more classes than other levels, with amazing dedicated teachers but not always the main pro-staff.

You are new to West Coast Swing or have danced for a while but don’t really feel comfortable social dancing. If you feel like you’re always doing the same basic patterns on the dancefloor and want new material this is the level for you. 

Fridays classes will start from the beginning with the basic patterns but in a quick paste. These classes are dedicated to those of you who have never tried West Coast Swing before or want a repetition of the basics. 

From Saturday we will focus on more patterns, styling and variations. How to take your West Coast Swing from patterns to learning who to connect and dance comfortably with your partner.

Level 3 (Novice)

You feel confident with your basics regardless of dance partner or music. You can social dance to any type of music at any tempo. Expressions like “phrase change”, “rolling count” and “pitch” are not new for you.

Level 4 (Intermediate)

This level is open for those in WSDC Intermediate (16 novice points or more). You can also audition for this level if you do not have the required WSDC points. 

Level 5 (Advanced)

For WSDC Advanced and All-Star dancers, this level requires a minimum 30 intermediate points. You can also audition for this level if you do not have the required WSDC points. 

Open level classes (All levels)

West Coast Swing class with our pro staff. These classes are open for all wcs dancers (full pass or extreme pass), regardless of what level you are attending. These are usually light and fun classes, a perfect way to start the social dance evening.

Bonus classes (All levels)

These classes are open for all wcs dancers (full pass or extreme pass), regardless of what level you are attending. These classes are beyond the leveled workshops in west coast swing. This is an opportunity to challenge your dance in a different way. Our teachers are some of the best in their genre. We highly recommend you to try these classes and be prepared to step out of your comfort zone.
