Frequently Asked Questions

Getting Started

Everything someone wants to know before joining

  • Absolutely! We offer classes for every experience level and all ages—from complete beginners to advanced dancers. Whether you're looking for a fun hobby, a great workout, or want to become a confident social dancer, there's a class for you.

  • If you've never taken salsa or bachata before, we recommend starting with our Beginner Unlimited Pass and taking as many beginner classes as possible. If you've taken classes before and are comfortable with the basics, you may be ready for Level 2 or higher. See our Level Guide on the Recreational Classes page or book a FREE Level Assessment if you'd like help choosing the right class.

  • No! You do not need a partner unless a class or workshop specifically states that registration is by couple. We rotate partners throughout class so everyone has the opportunity to dance and learn, but you're always welcome to opt out of rotating.

    • Beginner Unlimited Pass: $99 + GST (one-time payment)

    • Class Passes: Starting at $25 + GST

    • Monthly Memberships: Starting at $85/month + GST

    Visit our Recreational Classes page for current pricing and registration options.

  • Getting started is easy! Simply choose the membership, class pass, or program that's right for you and complete your purchase online. You'll then be prompted to create your free Mindbody account, where you'll book your classes, manage your schedule, and view your upcoming reservations. Once your account is set up, simply reserve your spot and you're ready to dance!


Memberships & Bookings

  • Memberships are the best value for dancers who want to learn and improve consistently. We offer 1 Class Per Week and Unlimited Memberships (3-month minimum commitment), both of which include exclusive member pricing, access to Schaeffer Murphy Academy classes, FREE Monday Socials, and priority registration for workshops and events. Not ready to commit? Our Beginner Unlimited Pass and Class Passes are great flexible options.

  • Yes, especially popular evening classes. We recommend reserving your spot through Mindbody as early as possible. Our schedule is released approximately 15 days before the start of each month.

  • Absolutely! Memberships may be frozen once per calendar year for vacations, injuries, or other circumstances. Please contact us to arrange your membership freeze.

  • All memberships, class passes, workshops, and events are non-refundable, non-transferable, and cannot be extended.

    Classes may be cancelled through Mindbody up to 6 hours before the scheduled start time. Late cancellations will result in the class credit being forfeited. Unlimited Members who late cancel or no-show will be charged a $10.50 no-show fee.

Before You Come

  • Wear comfortable clothing you can move freely in and clean indoor shoes. Please avoid black rubber-soled shoes, as they can mark the dance floor. Salsa or ballroom shoes are welcome but not required.

    Because Latin dance is a close-contact social activity, we also ask students to arrive in clean clothing, wear deodorant, and practice good personal hygiene out of courtesy and respect for their dance partners.

  • Water bottles are welcome. Food and other beverages are not permitted in the studios.

  • To provide the best learning experience for everyone, children and spectators are not permitted in adult classes. Children may not be left unattended in the waiting areas.
