Frequently Asked Questions...

Who is BoogieFit for?
This class is for you if...

you want to learn Latin dancing but you don't have a partner or your partner won't join you, or
you want a dance-based class with more Latin flavour, or
you just love to dance and want to express yourself with some Latin flavour, or
you've done some solo Latin dance and you want to build your dance repertoire and keep learning new moves.

What dance styles do I learn?

Dance styles vary and could include Salsa, Cha Cha, Forro, Bachata, Merengue, American Tango, American Rumba, Bolero and Samba.

Do I need any Latin dance experience?

No. However, the Absolute Beginner class is best suited to those with no Latin dance experience. Beginners who are up for a challenge are totally welcome to join the Open Level / Continuing Students class.

How complex is the choreography?

As we use real Latin dance moves in BoogieFit Solo Latin Dance, you may find it more challenging than a dance-fitness class like Zumba Fitness. Everybody is different, so one person may find Salsa steps more complicated than Cha Cha steps, whilst a second person may experience the opposite.
IMPORTANT NOTE: There is no expectation about being perfect in the class. Dance is about self-expression, so feel free to create your own variations and embrace your "unexpected solos"!

What music is used?

The music can be Latin or non-Latin songs. Some dance styles such as Salsa and Tango lend itself to its musical genre - ie Salsa music and Tango music. Other dance styles like Cha Cha, Rumba and Bolero have a large repertoire of non-Latin dance songs.

What do I wear?

Wear your workout gear or any comfortable, casual clothing that enables full movement of your arms and legs.
On your feet, choose any type of supportive shoe with a flat sole that allows you to easily pivot, turn and twist your feet without jarring your knees and ankles. Cross trainers, runners or any shoe with too much grip are not recommended as these will "stick" to the floor.

What do I bring?

Bring a water bottle. You may also wish to bring a small towel to wipe down the sweat of having so much fun! There is no floorwork, so you don't need a large towel or yoga mat.

Do I need a partner for these classes?

No, all BoogieFit Solo Latin Dance classes are non-partner dancing - hence, "solo"! Everybody does the steps on their own as individuals. If you are interested in partnered Latin dancing, check out our Couples Latin Dance options.

What is the age range?

Adults of all ages are welcome! Generally speaking, the majority of participants are in their 40s, 50s and 60s.

Who is the instructor?

All BoogieFit classes are instructed by Olga Gjokmarkovic, BoogieCamp's owner. Olga has been teaching BoogieFit since 2011. Her laidback teaching style will have you shaking your tail feather in no time! For more info on Olga, click here.

Did I hear you correctly? You teach Lap Dancing?

I have had this question before actually! I do not teach LAP Dancing, I teach LATIN Dancing. I have since learned to speak clearer!

Firstly, we love Olga’s style of teaching - easy-going, patient and fun. Otherwise we wouldn’t have continued. It is also reasonably priced to learn at the Kenmore classes.
