Fun and good course before attending a ball in Vienna. It also does not matter if you learn the leader or follower part because both are fun.

Fun dance and very cool course!
23. Nov. 2023, 23:31 Ballroom Crash Course with Matthias Mayer, Johanna Niessing & Robin Wolf, Room: Hönggerberg, HXE
Der Kurs ist wunderbar geeignet für Einsteiger, um gewisse Grundschritte und einfache Figuren zu lernen. In einer kurzen Zeit werden die Grundlagen auf eine gute Art beigebracht und direkt (nach einer kurzen Einführung) auch im Tanz mit einem Partner geübt.
22. Nov. 2023, 15:12 Ballroom Crash Course with Sonja Maria Merkle & Matthias Mayer, Room: Hönggerberg, HXE
Toller Crashkurs, machte Spass und deckte die wichtigsten Tanzstile ab.
20. Nov. 2023, 10:01 Ballroom Crash Course with Robin Wolf, Johanna Niessing & Matthias Mayer, Room: Hönggerberg, HXE
Absolute must for someone who, like me, has always been a little fascinated by dancing but was too shy to try it in front of other, more skilled people. The level is generally about the same for all participants, so I felt it was easier to make mistakes without feeling ashamed, and the teachers were really nice, and offered wonderfully clear explanations both in general to everyone, and privately on request. Great course, and the price is unbeatable!
19. Nov. 2023, 12:38 Ballroom Crash Course with Robin Wolf, Johanna Niessing & Matthias Mayer, Room: Hönggerberg, HXE
Guter Kurs mit vielen Grundschritten verschiedener Tänze. Gut geeignet für den Start und Anfängerniveau.
17. Nov. 2023, 13:16 Ballroom Crash Course with Robin Wolf, Johanna Niessing & Matthias Mayer, Room: Hönggerberg, HXE
very good crash-course to learn and repeat different basic steps and figures, the teachers made this very pleasant and fun
