Beginners are welcome...


  • BEGINNERS are welcome, however, please keep in mind that Latin dance is a learned skill requiring practice, perseverance and brain power, so be patient with yourself as it may take several lessons for the moves to sink in.

  • This is an OPEN level class. The majority of participants have been attending BoogieFit for YEARS, so the pace of learning can be FAST.
    ​
  • Because BoogieFit Solo Latin Dance is a DANCE-BASED class; it is more complex and less fitness-focused than a Zumba Fitness class.

​The BoogieFit Latin Solo classes with Olga are a lot of fun while providing a challenging workout for all ages. Olga creates a welcoming and friendly atmosphere for all to enjoy learning Latin dance moves without a partner.
~ Rosemary from Chapel Hill (March 2018)

  • All ages, shapes and fitness levels can dance their hearts out with some Latin flavour!

  • No need to wait around to find a dance partner because you'll be dancing on your own. Just bring yourself and discover the Latin rhythms.

I love the solo BoogieFit classes as I get to learn funky Latin moves and dance sequences which challenge the mind and also gives me a workout too.

​

BoogieFit Solo Latin Dance is NOT for you if...

  • You want a FITNESS class (ie you want to keep moving throughout the whole hour). In BoogieFit, we stop to break down and learn the moves, then practise to music.
  • You just want to stick to BASIC steps and learning complex Latin dance moves isn't of interest to you.
  • You don't want to do any TURNS. Unlike dance-fitness classes, BoogieFit has lots of turns and pivots.
  • You want to have each step broken down slowly. BoogieFit is an open-level class, so the pace is FASTER than a beginners-only class.

Frequently Asked Questions...
​

​Who is BoogieFit for?
This class is for you if...
  1. you want to learn Latin dancing but you don't have a partner or your partner won't join you, or
  2. you want a dance-based class with more Latin flavour, or
  3.  you just love to dance and want to express yourself with some Latin flavour, or
  4. 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?
  • ​Discover Latin steps from both Street Latin and Ballroom Latin dance styles, including: 
    • Street Latin - Salsa, Merengue, Forro, Bachata, Bolero
    • Ballroom Latin - Cha Cha, American Rumba, American Tango​

Do I need any Latin dance experience? 
  • Previous dance experience is not required. However, please note that this is an OPEN level class. The majority of participants have been attending BoogieFit for YEARS, so the pace of learning is FAST. Beginners are welcome but you need to be up for a challenge and be willing to be thrown into the deep end. BoogieFit Solo Latin Dance is more complex than a Zumba Fitness class. Latin dance is a learned skill that requires practice, perseverance, brain power and a commitment to learning.

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 range from their 40s to their 70s!

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.

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.
~ Sue & Alan from Moggill (March 2018)
​

I like how Olga teaches the classes in a relaxed atmosphere and keeps it fun. She encourages everyone to have a go.
