Also
referred to as Disco Freestyle, it
was originally known as Disco
dancing this started back in the early to mid
70's, but made more popular by the
release of the film Saturday Night Fever in
the late 70's many Ballroom & Latin dance
schools started to teach Disco Dancing. Its
now developed over many years and is known
as Disco Freestyle. Competitions are held
over the globe for this style of dance, you
can dance solo, in pairs,
teams, its fast and
energetic. But its a great form of dance
that can help aid any other dance style you
maybe learning. Many of today's successful
dancers actually learnt and competed in
Disco Freestyle. The music used is no longer
a disco beat, it more Donk, Scouse House,
Hard NRG, Eurobeat. |

Children Freestyle Classes.
Come and learn the fast and energetic
dance style, with fun classes, classes
for beginners, intermediate & Advanced
Competitor Levels. Of course majority of
our classes are for those who want to
learn to dance socially and keep fit,
but you may in that time decide you
would like to compete in Disco Freestyle
Dance Competitions, this is not a
problem as we are a Competitive School.
You must reach a particular standard
before you will be offered the chance to
compete. It is your choice and once you
become a competitive dancer you may also
perform Solo, Pairs, Trios, Teams
You can turn up and watch if you do not
wish to join in straight away, we always
recommend you come with a friend or in a
group that way you do not feel so
nervous as you will be with people you
know, but if you do come on your own
your soon make a load of new friends!
Clothing and Shoes, we recommend for
disco freestyle you wear something that
is not too baggy but you can move freely
in, jeans although always fashionable
are restrictive as are some shorts, on
your feet we suggest trainers,
plimsolls, or jazz shoes (these are not
expensive) If you become a competitor
you would actually dance in bear feet.

Tell Me More!
Disco Freestyle is danced to fast
music with a strong definitive beat, majority of the music currently
used are cover versions of slower songs, some with a "Donk" or also
known "Scouse House" beat, but majority are "euro beat" "NuNRG" with
some "Hard Dance" music, so with a fast music you will become a fast
dancer, but to start with in beginners classes you would dance to much
slower music as dancing fast is fine as long as you can finish of your
line, so dancing a full speed as competitors do is something you would
work towards. You will during this time increase your stamina, burn off
lots of energy and this aids your personal fitness. The dance style is
very much like what you see in many shows or pop star backing dancers'
styles with some small amounts of gymnastics moves, its a world that you
would not even know existed. When people attend a competition for the
first time they are over whelmed by the glitzy and fully stoned costumes
and the atmosphere.
Ability is displayed at regular
competitions where dancers from different dance schools all over the UK
(and also abroad) get together to compete for medals and trophies. These
can also be weekend festivals that are great fun also, as many family
members come along to support the dancers.
Any dancer can compete in these with a
strong hope of success as the dancers compete against dancers of similar
ability. There is a governing body that has created rules for the
dancers, teacher and promoters of competitions.
The dancers are divided into groups at competitions into age groups, and
then ability for that group. The ability groups:
Beginners
Starters
Intermediates
Championship
Dancers can move up into a higher ability group over time when three
1st, 2nd or 3rd places are awarded at competitions. This is a guide as
particular rules that are in place can effect the above.
Dancers move around the dance floor anticlockwise with other dancers on
the floor at the same time, with judges placed around the sides. In
order to be picked for the next round and therefore to be placed later
on, the dancer must dance their best (to their own personal set routine)
to wow the judges and attract their attention!
Competitions are great fun. We allow pupils to enter competitions once
they have reached a certain level. They are not compulsory. You may also
be selected to dance in a competitive dance team / troop |
