FAQs

  • We cover just about any dance you'd experience at a Louisiana dance hall or festival ground. Our main focus is on Zydeco and Cajun partner dances—like the Cajun Two Step, Zydeco Stomp, Whiskey River, Cajun Waltz, Zydeco Rock, Swamp Shuffle, Cajun Jitterbug, Zydeco Slide, Bayou Boogie, and plenty more!

  • Unless otherwise specified, all classes and workshops are held at:

    Cowboys Nightclub
    207 N Ambassador Caffery Pkwy, Scott, LA 70583

  • Yes! Louisiana Dance Nights and the Ol’ School Zydeco Workshops cater to Beginner & Intermediate dancers looking to kickstart their dancing career or just have a fun time out.

  • No, but it’s recommended. If you come solo, be open to dancing with different partners and possibly leading.

  • Comfortable clothes you can move in—dress up like a Zydeco night out or keep it casual like a Cajun festival.

    Leather-sole boots or smooth-soled sneakers (like Converse or Vans). Avoid grippy shoes.

  • Bring a water bottle. Classes run 60–90 minutes, so snacks aren’t needed. For everyone’s safety and focus, alcohol is not allowed during class.

  • Keep chatter down so other paying participants can maximize their learning experience.

    Stay teachable and do not use class time to show off your dance skills.

    Expect critiques. It’s best to view the instructor as a coach rather than a cheerleader.

    If you’re stuck, consider private lessons.

  • Yes. Everyone learns at a different pace—repetition builds mastery.

  • LA Dance Nights have no minimum; they host 15-30 people on average.

    Zydeco Workshops require a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 10 participants.

  • Nope. Even if you have experience Zydeco dancing, these Zydeco workshops build on each other. We strongly recommend starting with the Ol’ School Zydeco Workshop for Beginner & Intermediate students to lay a strong foundation before progressing to the Nu Skool Zydeco Workshop for Advanced dancers.

  • Check-in begins 15 minutes before class. Please arrive within this window. We kindly discourage early or late entry.

  • For the comfort and focus of all participants, we do not allow observers. Only registered students who have paid for the class may be present and actively participating.

  • All three sessions must be completed to repeat or advance to a new workshop and receive your certificate of completion. Make-up classes are available for $50 per person. They’re typically held on Fridays from 4:30–5:30pm and must be scheduled with the instructor during the same month as the workshop.
