Rooted in styles such as jazz, commercial dance and street dance, heels has become a powerful way for people of all backgrounds to build confidence, strength and body awareness.

With no pressure to film at the end of class, you’ll focus on building confidence, learning the foundations, and mastering your walks in a supportive and welcoming environment.Savvy Tuesdays are perfect for beginners in heels. It’s a fun, one-hour class where we focus heels technique, we learn a short routine, but the most important part is we have a good time.Savvy Wednesdays are our level up from a beginners class. We work on Improver Heels, perfect if you’ve got the basics down and want to build confidence.

- 10For Savvy Heels classes, we recommend bringing supportive, comfortable heels that provide good ankle support. You can check out the full list of heels recommendations in our bio on Instagram for more detailed suggestions. The key is to choose a pair that makes you feel confident while dancing and allows you to move safely and comfortably!If you’re a beginner, we highly recommend wearing heels with good ankle support, such as ankle boots or dance heels with straps. These provide extra stability and help you build strength, confidence, and technique safely.For our intermediate and advanced dancers, you’re welcome to wear pumps or heels with less ankle support. By this stage, you’ve likely developed stronger ankles, better balance, and greater control through training, making it easier to dance confidently in a wider variety of heel styles.The most important thing is that you feel comfortable, supported, and able to move freely. If you’re ever unsure, ankle-support heels are always a great choice!Vamps:https://vampheels.com/products/vanquish (SAVVYHEELS for 15% off!)Dance & Swayhttps://www.danceandsway.com/products/ds-womens-rubber-sole-customized-dance-heels-boots-salsa-jazz-dance-shoes Burju Shoes: https://burjushoes.com/products/sierra-black-vegan-leather-street-soleJoheela:https://joheela-shop.com/collections/nouveautes-1/products/sabrina-leopard-talons-stilettos-personnalisable

At Savvy Heels, we teach a brand-new routine every single week, meaning you can keep learning, growing, and challenging yourself with fresh choreography.The only exception is our Savvy Throwback Thursday, which takes place on the last Thursday of every month.During these classes, we bring back a fan-favourite routine that our community loved. We usually let our members vote on the routine through our WhatsApp community chat or Instagram Stories, so make sure you’re following along and don’t miss out!For Throwback Thursday, we’ll revisit the choreography from the beginning, refine the details, and often add new elements so you can build on what you’ve already learned.Other than that, every week is a completely new routine, and all of our open classes are welcoming to both new and returning dancers.
