Schedule
Level
Beginner
This training is designed for all those people who want to start contemporary from the base. It does not matter if you come from another discipline or if you have never danced: here we start from zero, with structure, clarity, and progression.
The group is limited to a maximum of 25 people in a safe space where learning takes place without comparisons and with genuine progress. By keeping the same group, the process is gradual, allowing participants to assimilate each tool before moving on to the next.
Classes
We will learn the fundamental bases of the style: how to move through space with control, how to enter and exit the floor without hurting ourselves, how to execute the most basic and common tricks and rolls, and how to understand movement from technique and body awareness. The objective is for the body to gain coordination, confidence, and safety in every step.
“Absolute Beginner” is not a drop-in class to try, it is a training designed to build a solid base. In four months you will acquire the knowledge and confidence necessary to handle the fundamentals of contemporary dance.
If you have always wanted to start contemporary but did not know where to do it without feeling out of place, this is your starting point.

I’m very happy with Elevate’s classes. Andrea makes everything easy to understand and practical. The classes are very productive, and the atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, which makes you feel comfortable from day one.

Returning to dance with Elevate after a serious injury has rekindled my passion for dance. I’m so glad I did it, especially with Andrea’s professionalism and close relationship with her students.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I feel lost if I don’t attend the first day when a new choreography is taught in the Lyrical class?
No. You can attend the class any Friday without any problem.
The choreographies are always explained from the beginning in each session, so it is not necessary to have attended previous classes in order to follow the class normally.
Can I attend single Technical Foundation classes?
No. Technical Foundation classes are designed to be worked on with continuity, as this is the way in which real technical progress can be appreciated.
However, if you have never taken this class before, you can come and try one session for €17*.
*You can find more information in the Technical Foundation section of the website.
Are Intermediate Contemporary classes suitable for beginners?
No. If you have never practiced contemporary dance, we recommend starting with the Contemporary Absolute Beginner Training.
This training takes place two or three times during the course and has a duration of four months, and is specifically designed for people who are starting from zero.
Do I need to be a professional dancer to participate in the Pro Program?
It is not necessary to be a professional dancer.
The Pro Program has a professional approach and is aimed at students with an advanced level or, at minimum, an intermediate level, so it is not suitable for people who have never danced.
When we refer to “professional,” we are mainly referring to the approach, the environment, and the objective of the classes, but it is not essential to work professionally in dance or to have an extremely high level in order to participate.
If I am under 12 years old, can I participate in the Pro Program Junior?
The Pro Program Junior is designed for students aged 12 and above.
If you are younger than that but are interested in participating, you can contact our team so that we can evaluate your specific case. Depending on the level and abilities of the student, the possibility of making an exception could be considered.
What type of clothing is recommended for the classes?
Contemporary
It is recommended to wear long pants and a short- or long-sleeved t-shirt. It is preferable to avoid tank tops, open-back tops, and shorts, especially for people who are starting in this style.
Technical Foundation
It is recommended to wear clothing that is as fitted as possible, as it allows the teacher to better observe body alignment and provide more precise technical corrections.
Lyrical
You can wear whatever clothing you feel most comfortable in for dancing.
Do I need to bring any material for Technical Foundation classes?
No. All the material necessary for the class is provided by the center itself.
If I do not have an advanced level, can I join a competition group?
Competition groups are aimed at dancers with an intermediate or advanced level.
In order to access them, it is necessary to complete a prior audition, with the objective of evaluating whether the student’s level matches the group’s requirements.
Can I recover a class or request a refund?
For management reasons, no refunds are made for either single classes or monthly passes.
Classes can only be recovered in case of injury or illness, provided that prior notice is given and a medical certificate is presented.
If recovery is possible, the class must be completed within a maximum period of one calendar month.
What level should I choose if I am not sure about my level?
At Elevate, we mainly offer classes aimed at intermediate and advanced levels, but we also have options designed for people who are starting or who want to strengthen their technical base.
Among these are Technical Foundation, which is open to all levels, as well as the Contemporary Absolute Beginner Training, where we teach contemporary from zero.
If you still have doubts about which class could best suit your level or experience, do not hesitate to contact our team and we will be happy to guide you.
How do I reserve my spot?
Still have doubts?
Elevate is evolution, awareness, and a passion for learning.
