A spring of dance that allowed learning at your own pace

A few years ago, Pirita started teaching weekly classes with her self-developed Hot Heels concept at the then TinzeTwerkStudio, and that's how I, too, started learning to dance in heels alongside twerking.

I fell head over heels in love with this more sensual movement language right away! At the beginning of 2026, I was very pleased when I noticed the Hot Heels beginner advanced classes in the Wonder Club Tampere schedule. I just had to join!

Hot Heels teaches you to listen to your own body

In Hot Heels classes, Pirita always emphasizes the connection to one's own body, and this is practiced with various feeling exercises. Practicing choreography in dance classes requires a connection between mind and body, and therefore it is wonderful that the classes also take into account bodily sensations without the mind interfering.

I feel that especially in these classes I have learned to be gracious towards myself and to accept that I don't always master everything right away. Pirita often reminds us that the classes are specifically for learning and practicing.

Beginners Friday lowers the threshold to try something new

In addition to Hot Heels beginner advanced classes, I participated in several Beginners Friday courses during the spring season. At Wonder, Fridays are dedicated to beginner classes, and the idea is that the courses change every month. The threshold for trying a new discipline couldn't be much lower!

BF courses are suitable for absolute beginners with no dance background at all, as well as for dancers interested in a new discipline.

Alone to class, together to dance

I myself have been to try Julia's twerk classes and Pirita's Hot Heels beginners and twerk technique classes on Fridays. Both teachers are super patient and encourage asking questions bravely.

In almost every course, I have met someone new, even if I went to the course alone. That's one of the best things about dance: dance brings people together.

Even experienced dancers learn new things in technique classes

I especially want to mention the twerk technique course. Even though I have been practicing the discipline for four years, I learned something new every time during this three-week course!

A few movements have always been challenging for me, so it was super nice to properly focus on these movements and get detailed tips on how to execute them. I highly recommend participating in technique classes.

Join Beginners Friday courses in the autumn

If dancing is tempting, I highly recommend joining one of the Beginners Friday courses in the autumn!
