Ein sehr spannender Kurs mit guten Tanzlehrpersonen!!! Auch sehr zugänglich, wenn man noch kein Ballroom 1 gemacht hat, jedoch sich mit Tanz allgemein ein bisschen auskennt.

As always, Axel and Viera did an amazing job! I started with no background except ballroom 1, but the progression is very good, and I always had loads of fun too, can recommend strongly to anyone!

Daniel and Andrea are excellent teachers, i can only recommend. Their clear and step by step explanations are very easy to follow.
27. May 2025, 16:26 Teachers: Daniel Sparber & Andrea Catellani, Room: ETH Zentrum, Alumni-Pavillon
Das Lehrerpaar war topmotiviert und hat die Tanzschritte mit Witz + Style vorgezeigt. So hat es gleich noch mehr Spass gemacht in den Tanzstunden :). Andrea und Daniel haben darauf geachtet, dass alle Teilnehmerpaare Feedback bekommen und haben uns mit bei Fragen gerne und oft weitergeholfen.

05. June 2024, 18:22 Teachers: Vitaliya Bahdanava & Thore Göbel, Room: ETH Zentrum, CAB, food&lab
Sehr cooler Kurs, ich fand die Beiden leitenden Personen sehr Kompetent und eingespielt. Sie haben einem immer weitergeholfen und haben die Schritte sehr ausführlich erklärt. Was ich ebenfalls sehr toll fand, ist, dass sie bereits etwas auf die Form und Technik eingegangen sind und nicht nur gezeigt haben in welcher Reihenfolge man die Schritte machen muss.

Marina & Thore were the best!

14. Dec. 2023, 13:32 Teachers: Thore Göbel & Marina Ivanović, Room: UZH Irchel, Y25-H-92
Thore and Marina are great teachers! It's easy to follow their explanations; they have found a good balance between dry runs and dancing to music, all while providing just the right amount of feedback. They're also approachable and fun. I would definitely join one of their courses again.

30. Oct. 2026, 15:46 Ballroom 3 with Zhuolin Liu & Tim Gehrunger, Room: UZH Irchel Y21-D-68a
Goot continuation of the Ballroom Series with Quickstep and Vienese Waltz but consider room size when signing in (for us it was too small).
26. April 2026, 18:56 Rumba Workshop with Zhuolin Liu & Arthur Kirchgessner, Room: Hönggerberg, Raum der Stille
The rumba choreography was very nice and Arthur and Zhuolin did an amazing job teaching it!

25. Nov. 2024, 14:21 Ballroom Crash Course with Michael Zischg, Lena Bartl, Daniel Sparber & Zhuolin Liu, Room: ETH Zentrum, Alumni-Pavillon
This is a great course for learning the basic steps of four dances. The teachers are friendly and open, and explain the steps well. The course is well adapted for complete beginners, and a good refresher if you already know the dances a little. Even though it is 4 hours long, it is not very tiring as the course is distributed throughout the day.
25. Nov. 2024, 11:24 Ballroom Crash Course with Zhuolin Liu, Daniel Sparber, Michael Zischg & Lena Bartl, Room: ETH Zentrum, Alumni-Pavillon
Der Crashkurs war sehr hilfreich, um uns in nur einem einzigen Tag so gut wie möglich vorzubereiten. Ich war verblüfft, wie viel wir an diesem einzigen Tag lernen konnten.
