(Jan-Jul, Aug-Dec) So if you are in Dusseldorf for an extended period of time I recommend this dance school, however for someone like me who was looking for drop-in classes (like Pineapple Studios in London) it was not ideal. My first taster class went down fine, however when I returned the following week to try another proficiency level, they were very reluctant and told me that they don't let new people join so far into a new course (even though they weren't working on an extended choreo / building up to a performance).

A friendly dance school (studios are split between Grafenberger Allee and Jacobistrasse),…read moreAbsolutTanzbar allows you to take taster or one-off classes. I tried two hip hop (uber20) classes and found it to be very very simplistic, attracting a 30-50 crowd who seemed to be doing it for novelty value. The alternative was to take classes with pre-teens. Although one instructor was alright the other was quite hostile and unhelpful to me when I tried to ask her where else she taught (in the hopes that she taught a higher level class elsewhere). Just try to have a thick skin at times!

The Cultuurhuis is a wonderful community center which features live music, theater productions,…read moredance classes and more. A cozy 80 seat music room has a great sound system and a bar which serves beer and wine. Upstairs is a 200 seat black box theatre with stage lighting and adjustable seating. The building itself is an old school, but a remodel in recent years has updated lighting, restrooms, and temperature control.

First of all, it's almost impossible to categorize this place. Is it a dance studio? A fitness…read morestudio? A bar? A nightclub? Well, actually, it's all of the above. The club offers a variety of dance classes, as well as Pilates, Yoga and Capoeira courses. Daily happy hours can help ease your inhibitions before you take that first Salsa lesson or provide you with some hard-earned refreshment after an hour of Capoeira. They also have a big-screen TV, which was great for watching the EM after bellydancing class. Check out their website for course offerings and themed dance nights, such as Salsa Night. The personnel are very friendly and the instructors are really great. They're still in the process of decorating, otherwise they'd get all 5 stars, without a doubt. Check it out but don't tell too many people about it. The classrooms are quite small and I don't want to lose my spot!
