What's the dress code for the class? Do I need high-heeled shoes, and is there anything specific I should bring?

Wear comfortable workout attire; black is preferred but not mandatory. High-heeled shoes are recommended, starting with sneakers is fine. Bring knee pads if possible. If you have heels, bring them; if not, we can guide you. Just come ready to enjoy and move!

How are the classes structured, and what can I expect during a session?

Our classes are thoughtfully structured. In our beginner sessions, we focus on mastering the basics of dancing in heels, refining your walk, and enhancing overall dance skills, and of course some new dance moves!
 
For our open-level sessions, we start with comprehensive warm-ups, emphasizing stability and core strength, crucial for dancing in high heels. We delve into advanced techniques tailored to elevate your performance, including intricate footwork, precise movements, and dynamic choreography. Each session introduces new routines every two weeks, offering a diverse and engaging experience.

How long are classes?

All classes at Heels by Iryna are 60 minutes long. This includes your warm up, Runway walks, dance routine and cool down / stretch. Classes start promptly at the start time and we ask that you stay until the end of class for the safety and enjoyment of you and the other members in class!
