About this course

In this training, we revisit the dances from the Ballroom courses focusing on how to dance them more nicely in terms of look, feel, and musicality. The training will help you on your way towards looking like a pro on the dance floor :-). You will learn to dance the known basic figures effortlessly and discover body movements that create the typical character of the dances, which will facilitate learning more complex figures in the future. The training also covers the topic of lead and follow to create a smooth experience within the couple so that both partners can enjoy the dance.

We recommend this course to everyone who has been dancing for up to 1.5 years, i.e. if you are taking Ballroom 1 to 6 at the moment. If you already have more experience, consider checking out our Ballroom Training for Standard or Latin.

Requirements

For attending, we expect you to know the basics of the dances of the evening (see at the top). If you did Ballroom 1, you can safely join for Waltz, Cha Cha, Jive, and Discofox. With Ballroom 2, you can also join for Rumba and Tango. If you did Ballroom 3 or higher you can join for everything.

  • You must have a valid ASVZ membership to participate (note as ETH or UZH student you will automatically have that).
  • Take a lock with you & store all your bags, jackets etc in a locker. No street shoes are permitted in the room (wear dance shoes for example, or socks if you don't have dance shoes (yet)).
  • To enter the building you will have to register for the class and scan the QR code which you will receive after your participation is confirmed.

Daniel explained the focus of this lesson very nicely and gradually. Kicks and flicks are definitely a great addition to the Jive repertoire, loved it!

As always, Chris presents interesting material that fits well to the groups abilities. It’s awesome to have this kind of advanced courses, which (together with the technique trainings on Fridays) create this group of dancers who want to improve together.

Nice course, would do it again.
20. Feb. 2024, 20:08 Quickstep Basic Jumping Figures mit Christoph Hellings, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Chris gestaltet seine Kurse und Workshops immer so lehrreich und gleichzeitig so spaßig.
19. Feb. 2024, 11:08 Quickstep Basic Jumping Figures mit Christoph Hellings, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
The Quickstep course was super fun, we learned a good amount of figures and had time to practice them. We also learned a bit about the 'character' of the dance.
12. Feb. 2024, 09:02 Cha Cha New Yorker Variationen mit Christoph Hellings, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Chris does a very good job at explaining difficult figures/variations by first teaching more simple versions to then make it easier to learn the juicy stuff.
09. Feb. 2024, 10:01 Cha Cha New Yorker Variationen mit Christoph Hellings, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
I enjoyed this course, we looked as many variations that we’ll be able to use during the open dancing.

Chris is a great teacher & finds the perfect balance between technique that you need, fun figures and challenges!
07. Feb. 2024, 15:59 Polka mit Christoph Hellings, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Very nice introduction to Polka, in particular for everyone who joined the trip to Vienna where we could dance quite a few Polkas.
10. Jan. 2024, 18:08 Polka mit Christoph Hellings, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Chris hat ein grosses Theoriewissen und streut es in guten Maße in seine Kurse ein. Nicht zu viel, nicht zu wenig, gerade genug dass es interessant ist, man nicht nur die Schritte lernt, sondern auch lernt wie sie zusammen spielen sollen, und was sich auf andere Tänze übertragen lässt.
14. Dez. 2023, 12:28 Ballroom Open Level mit Christoph Hellings, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Great and fun course, just the right amount of technique, variations of figures and music to practice.

Heidi and Daniel are very passionate teachers and really motivated me and my partner to swing them legs!
27. Okt. 2023, 16:42 Ballroom 1 mit Markus Wagner, Heidi Lee & Daniel Sparber, Raum: UZH Irchel, Y25-H-92
Nice course for begineers, the progression is a bit fast, but for sure is not boring. I would say a proper introduction to dancing.
27. Okt. 2023, 15:04 Ballroom Open Level mit Christoph Hellings, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
The dance course strikes the perfect balance between reviewing figures, improving technique and focusing on the variety that ballroom dancing has to offer. I greatly enjoyed every session of the course & look forward to the next course! Chris is an excellent teacher!
27. Okt. 2023, 14:52 Ballroom Open Level mit Christoph Hellings, Raum: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
This is a fantastic course, I have learned so much, particularly how figures can be combined, when they can be danced, and how to dance them well. I also really enjoyed the explanations of concepts like swing and different energies of the steps within figures. Chris brings so much positive energy and happiness to his classes, which makes it even more enjoyable to learn and improve. There was also lots of individual feedback and input from the class.
