Room notice

  • You must have a valid ASVZ membership to participate (note as ETH or UZH student you will automatically have that).

  • 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. It will appear here on this page below, once you have been confirmed.

  • Take a lock with you and store all your bags, jackets, etc. in a locker. You are not allowed to leave any luggage inside or in front of the room. Street shoes are not permitted in the room. Wear dance shoes, or socks if you don't have dance shoes (yet).

Description

During the practice, we simulate tournament rounds. This means, you partner up with someone and dance through all Standard and Latin dances like they are played in a tournament: a bit less than two minutes for each dance and without a break in between. So it's all about dancing through the programs, gaining some routine, and building up fitness.

Usually, a trainer is present for tips, and to help you improve your dancing for your next competition.

Do I need to bring a partner? You can come without a partner. Chances are there are also other people joining without a partner and you can just pair up with them. However, if you want to be sure to have someone to dance with, just bring a partner.

P.S. If you think we should match partners for these practices, tell us! We can then enable a mandatory sign-up where we only confirm participants if the lead/follow ratio is balanced.

Always love a workshop with Chris :)
27. July 2024, 09:45 Paso Doble Choreography Workshop with Christoph Hellings, Room: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Great course. Build up the choreo bit-by-bit, making it easy to follow. Well-paced progression from dry practice to dancing through the entire combination learnt so far.
03. June 2024, 18:48 Ballroom Open Level with Christoph Hellings, Room: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
In diesem Kurs habe ich diverse neue Figuren und Variationen von Figuren, die ich schon kannte, gelernt. Chris ist hervorragend im Erklären der Figuren, ich habe viel gelernt. Gerne wieder!

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.

Great course. Thank you for all the technique tips, they are worth a lot!
20. Feb. 2024, 20:08 Quickstep Basic Jumping Figures with Christoph Hellings, Room: 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 with Christoph Hellings, Room: 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 Variations with Christoph Hellings, Room: 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 Variations with Christoph Hellings, Room: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
I enjoyed this course, we looked as many variations that we’ll be able to use during the open dancing.
09. Feb. 2024, 09:41 Cha Cha New Yorker Variations with Christoph Hellings, Room: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Chris is a great teacher & finds the perfect balance between technique that you need, fun figures and challenges!
07. Feb. 2024, 15:59 Polka with Christoph Hellings, Room: 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 with Christoph Hellings, Room: 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. Dec. 2023, 12:28 Ballroom Open Level with Christoph Hellings, Room: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
Great and fun course, just the right amount of technique, variations of figures and music to practice.
27. Oct. 2023, 15:04 Ballroom Open Level with Christoph Hellings, Room: 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. Oct. 2023, 14:52 Ballroom Open Level with Christoph Hellings, Room: 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.
05. July 2023, 22:15 Paso & Samba with Christoph Hellings & Daniel Sparber, Room: ETH Zentrum, Alumni-Pavillon
Wonderful teachers, lots to learn and a great, joyful atmosphere. Can recommend!
