NEW CLASS!
We are very excited to announce that on the 15th February, Carolyn Smith (Principal judge on Ballando con le Stelle) will be bringing her own dance classes ‘Sensual Dance Fit’ to Ballando.
Carolyn will take 1 class, focusing around female empowerment, increasing self confidence and performance skills through dance and movement. Already incredibly popular in Italy, we can’t wait to host Carolyn and her team in the UK.
Alongside this, Gio will also teach our usual Level 1-3 classes – so it’s a full on afternoon of dance and fun! Spaces are limited, so be sure to book soon via our class booking page.
Ballando on Tour 2026 – the FULL list!
We are so excited to visit more places than we ever have done before! 2 classes at each location, each a different ‘level’ means there’s something for everyone.
Class 1 – L1/2 – Great for those who haven’t danced before, have a little experience or want to learn at a slower pace. a class that will go over the basics, and foundations to build confidence.
Class 2 – L2/3 – more challenging steps and timings. Quicker paced teaching that’s great for more confident dancers, or those wanting to push themselves.
The levels are about how the class will be taught, rather than your experience – so you are still more than welcome to join both! Visit our Class Booking page now to book!
Gio is back in December!
He’s competing on Ballando con le Stelle at the moment, but he’s making time to come back and teach one more time this year!
7th December – London – 3 classes
3 levels, so something for everyone (and yes, you are welcome to do multiple classes if you want!)
Details of each level are on the T&C on the class booking page (scroll to the bottom). See you there!
