UTOPIA ACADEMY

The UTOPIA Dance Academy - Our main aim in creating the UTOPIA experience is to encourage more dancers into the Chill-Out/Blues dance environment. This can often be a daunting prospect for anyone on the periphery, which is why we also run regular UTOPIA Academy workshops and classes to help build confidence.
Workshops are updated on a regular basis and, in addition, many of our freestyle events commence with a specialist dance class. This program of teaching has recently been enhanced by the SILC format introduced in 2015. This style of dance is based on technique and connection. As such it fits perfectly into the format of our events and the music we play
Smooth Links 2 Workshop
14th December 2025 - 1.30pm - 4.30pm
Fieldgate Centre, Kingsclere, RG20 5SQ
Smooth out your dancing for an advanced look and style.
It's not necessary to pack your dancing with complicated or difficult to lead / follow moves. By fusing together common movements in different ways you will create a smooth feel, original, individual and seamless dance.
Guys - you will gain a new repertoire and ability to create your own move variations
Ladies - you will become more accurate followers and tidier dancers. This style of dancing fits the Utopia / SILC / Ceroc Dance-floors and it feels smooth and seamless!
Smooth Links 1 & 2 feature different sequences to drop straight into your repertoire, whilst giving you the tools to make your own moves original.
