How a good one runs
What a good dance plan looks like
The host sets a simple prompt or project, basics are provided when the plan says so, and there is a share-out at the end for anyone who wants one. The pace is posted, and the group regroups at every turn. It starts at a set time, so the group arrives together instead of trickling in. Most plans land between 4 and 20 people: enough energy, still easy to learn names.
Tip for your first one: nobody is judging. Most people at a creative plan came to try something new, same as you.

Dance questions
Do I need to be good at dance?
No. Hosts label every dance plan with a level: all levels, beginner friendly, intermediate or advanced. Pick the one that matches you today. If you are unsure, beginner friendly is always a safe first plan.
What does it cost to join?
Your share of the plan’s costs, like a court or a table, split evenly and paid up front. On a free plan, the RSVP the host set. It is charged when the plan happens and is not refunded for cancelling or not coming, so everyone who says yes actually goes. If the plan does not happen, you are not charged.
What if the host cancels?
Nobody is charged, and you get a message straight away. The same happens if the plan does not reach its minimum number of people.
Love dance? Host it.
