K-pop Dance Class Structure

  • 4-Week Choreography Course: Over the course of 4 weeks, you'll learn an entire K-pop dance choreography from start to finish.

  • Weekly Progression: Each week, we focus on a different section of the choreography, building on what you've learned in the previous week. By the end of the 4 weeks, you'll have mastered the full routine.

  • Multiple Class Times: To accommodate different schedules, we offer multiple class sessions throughout the week. Each session within a given week will cover the same part of the choreography, so you can attend whichever class time works best for you without missing out on any content.

  • Consistent Practice: This structure ensures that everyone progresses at the same pace, and you have plenty of opportunities to practice each section before moving on to the next.

We’re excited to help you learn and perfect your K-pop dance skills! Whether you’re a beginner or have some experience, our classes are designed to be fun, engaging, and accessible for all levels.

Looking For Other Styles Of Dance?

We also offer K-pop Diet Dance and a diverse number of classes in other styles like Hip Hop, House, and Choreography.
