Everyone learns at a different pace \u2013 practice, social dancing, commitment and previous experience all play their part. If you dance outside class, you'll usually progress faster. And if you only want to dance once a week, an easier class is often the better choice: less frustration, more fun.<\/p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"csa-faq-item\"><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"faq5\" class=\"csa-faq-t\"><label for=\"faq5\" class=\"csa-faq-q\">When should I move up a level?<\/label><div class=\"csa-faq-a\"><p>We recommend staying at the same level until you've mastered the technique, rather than rushing through the levels. It's far better to do a few figures and some footwork really well than to know a lot of moves you execute badly \u2013 and your dance partners will feel the difference.<\/p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"csa-faq-item\"><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"faq6\" class=\"csa-faq-t\"><label for=\"faq6\" class=\"csa-faq-q\">New to the school?<\/label><div class=\"csa-faq-a\"><p>Starting at CSA with experience from another school?
