π The Perfect Time to Joinπ
This series is designed to be progressive to give students a solid understanding of Urban Kiz fundamentals.
In Series Level 3, we take the foundation established in Level 1 & 2 and build upon it, offering students the chance to delve deeper into their dance journey. This level emphasizes a comprehensive understanding of both dance roles, incorporating accelerations, encouraging creative expression, introducing directional changes, and honing the ability to execute precise movements in alignment with musical timing. Students in Series Level 3 are challenged to embrace a heightened level of creativity, infusing their dance with personal expression while maintaining technical precision. The goal of Series Level 3 is to not only bolster technical proficiency but also to broaden each student's dance vocabulary, equipping them with a more comprehensive and expressive repertoire of movements to draw upon in their dance endeavors. This stage of the series is all about growth, self-expression, and taking your dance skills to the next level.
Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of Urban Kiz, learn from passionate instructors, and connect with a safe inclusive dance community.
Register today and take your first step towards becoming a confident social dancer with The Kiz Lab!

πΈTo ensure that every participant in the class can make the most of their experience, we will conduct a brief evaluation during the initial minutes of the first class. This evaluation ensures that everyone is at the appropriate skill level for Series Level 3. Please be aware that if, for any reason, the instructor determines that you may not be ready for Level 3, you will be reimbursed, and you will receive personalized feedback to guide your progress.Β
