Here's what our Students Say

DC Dance Club is my favourite place to dance! I've tried several other dance studios in Calgary but Miro, Carol, and their talented and friendly instructors keep me coming back. They have a wide range of group classes and dance styles offered. And they're welcoming to both couples and solo dancers, which is great if you don't have a partner.

Allison Price

Student
Amazing People! Amazing Instructors!
As a beginner I found the place to be friendly and relaxing. The Instructors are friendly and great, both in group classes and private classes. Have met a lot of nice people and new friends. I highly suggest take a class for confidence or something to do with your partner.

B. J. S.

Student
This is a wonderful dance school. I was very comfortable here as a salsa beginner and it has a family feel. All of the dance concepts are broken down in an easy to understand way and the lessons are very fun! I can't recommend this school enough.

Jen R.

Student
Since the time I started dancing at DC, I've learned and grown so much in my latin and ballroom dancing techniques! DC caters to all levels and various genres of dance...whether you're a beginner, intermediate or advanced dancer, this studio is the place to be.

Elaine Dias

Student
Carol at DC Dance Club is a genuine, welcoming, and dedicated instructor. In three lessons she took us from never dancing before to performing lifts and dips. We cannot thank her and DC Dance Club enough for igniting a passion for dance that neither of us previously had.

Bryce C.

Student
I recently moved to Calgary. Meeting new people at DC Dance Club AND improving my social dancing has been fun and challenging. The team there is knowledgeable and enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge. I've even joined their performance team! Beginners, too, are welcomed and get the support they need to succeed.

Melissa Shalagan

Student
My fiancé and I booked a package of dance lessons here to prepare for our wedding. Carol and Miro are amazing teachers. As someone with zero dance experience I felt welcome and had a lot of fun. This studio is LGBTQ+ friendly and I would definitely recommend it to anyone but especially to queer couples seeking somewhere safe to dance.

Ashley Parker

Student
Miro and Carol are awesome! We came to them for wedding dance lessons. Neither me or my husband are very good dancers and Miro was very nice and encouraging. He choreographed our first dance and taught us how to do it! Everyone was so impressed with how great our dance turned out! Would definitely recommend dance lessons here!

Nicole Becker

Student
I booked a private couple's dance lesson at DC dance club and it was absolutely phenomenal. Carol was our instructor and she taught my fiance and I multiple different styles of dance with clear and concise instructions and made my confidence as a beginner dancer sore. If you are wanting to learn how to dance I would highly recommend coming here. Would give more stars if I could

Tyler Sauter

Student
We did dance lessons for our wedding and it turned out fantastic! We had so much fun. Carol and Miro are lovely to work with and so talented. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

Shaenia MacIsaac

Student
Carol was a great coordinator and an amazing instructor. She set myself and my fiance up for some sweet moves for the first dance at our wedding! Highly recommend

Campbell Cameron

Student
We chose DC Dance for 2 lessons this spring for our wedding "a kiss and a cuddle" package. We had Carol and she was absolutely fantastic and delivered so much more than we could have ever dreamed! Lessons were affordable and we were so happy with the end result. Thanks so much!

Frequently Asked Questions

Private lessons and group classes are a perfect partnership. The structure and customizability of our private lessons will get you to where you want to be as a dancer quicker. However, the variety of our group classes allow you to experience new learned steps with different partners, or take what you learn in a group class and polish it with your instructor

Every class is different, however classes can typically be joined as late as the second week. If you'll miss more than one week, we recommend that you wait until the start of the next series (at the beginning of the next month), as most classes are taught as part of a progressive series. With a progressive series, each week builds on what was taught the previous week(s). Some classes allow newcomers throughout the entire month. Please call the studio to find out more details.

If you feel that you have necessary skills to skip to an upper level class, you will just need to get instructor approval before attending the class.

It varies with each person! Our classes contain quite a bit more material than the average group class, as students need a certain amount of repetition to develop both the mental and physical retention needed to become comfortable in a particular style. The average student who has never taken dance will usually spend 3 - 4 months in any given level before being passed into the next level. Instructors gauge the footwork, lead/follow, and rhythm/musicality level of each student to determine which class will best allow him/her to succeed. If you ever have a question about being passed into the next level, please talk with the instructor!

Because our group classes are geared to adults, students must be at least 18 years old to attend. (We may occasionally make exceptions - on a case-by-case basis - for students 16 - 17 years old to attend adult group classes, with parental approval & a signed release form, and with the understanding that they will be dancing with other adult students of all ages)

Wear clothes you would feel comfortable moving in. Some people come after work and have business casual attire on, some people wear jeans and t-shirt. Both are perfectly fine. As for shoes, when you first start out a pair a shoes that give you good support and preferably does not have a rubber sole. Eventually as your dancing progresses you will want to consider purchasing a pair of dance shoes. We can certainly help you select and/or order the right shoe.

For your first class: If you have not pre-registered or pre-paid prior to class we recommend arriving 15 - 20 minutes before class begins, otherwise 5-10 minutes prior to class is enough.
