Zaganjamo začetni družabni plesni tečaj, osredotočen na samozavest, povezovanje in uživanje v plesu na družabnih dogodkih. To ni tečaj učenja zapletenih koreografij. Gre za to, da se naučiš naravno gibati, začutiti glasbo in samozavestno plesati z vsakomer. 🔥 Ideja Začnemo z 1-mesečnim testnim obdobjem (4 tedni). Če se izkaže in bo zanimanje, tečaj razširimo v polni 3-mesečni program. 🧠 Kaj se boš naučil/-a? Osnove družabnega plesa, ki delujejo pri različnih stilih Kako naravno voditi in slediti Kako improvizirati namesto učenja korakov na pamet Kako z majhnim naborom osnov ustvariš veliko različnih variacij V 3 mesecih bomo spoznali 12 najbolj pogostih družabnih plesov, med drugim: angleški in dunajski valček, tango, slowfox, foxtrot, rumba, cha-cha, samba, jive, disco, bachata in salsa. 🗓 Praktične informacije (testni mesec) 📅 Začetek: nedelja, 25. januar 2026 🕖 Termin: vsako nedeljo ob 20:00 ⏱ Trajanje: 75 minut na uro 📆 Pogostost: 1× tedensko 💶 Cena: 60 € na osebo / mesec (vključuje 4 × 75-minutne ure) Tečaj je odprt za posameznike in pare — partner ni potreben. 🌍 Komu je tečaj namenjen? Začetnikom, ki želijo samozavest na plesišču Vsem, ki si želijo zabavne tedenske rutine Tistim, ki ne želijo več stati ob strani na zabavah ali porokah Tujcem in domačinom, ki se želijo povezati skozi gibanje ✨ Predhodno plesno znanje ni potrebno. 📩 Zanima te? 👉 Prijava preko Google obrazca: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeoiCWnf4VxrzYBkUkthd-hieU4_QEViP_UFV5j8oLnDgAKYA/viewform?usp=publish-editor 💬 Plesna WhatsApp skupina: https://chat.whatsapp.com/BDzfpT03OqdLFCfbK4BIPn
