    Ballroom Genie is for…

    Competitors

    • Watch a wide range of competitive figures, from rocket variations to rondé twist turns — all demonstrated by world class performers.
    • Top professionals give advice on some of the most challenging figures, from advanced technical points to stylistic choices.
    • Upgrade your routine with our choreography tools — related steps show alternative figures at new levels.

    I really do use Ballroom Genie as a reference all the time. It helps me cement my understanding of what I am taught in a lesson — both new steps and continuing improvement on ones I’ve done for a long time. The use of this program as a lesson follow-up has helped me improve faster.

    Teachers

    • Choreography tools offer routine-planning inspiration.
    • If you’re teaching alone, the videos can help demonstrate how both partners’ steps fit together.
    • Special effects like semi-transparent partners and top-down views can illustrate points in lessons, helping to give your students new insights and understanding.

    Great resourse for teachers! Simple, but very informative!

    Since I signed up with Ballroom Genie it helps me a lot in my teaching, the big advantage is that the steps are clearly demonstrated from all the possible alignments.

    Social dancers

    • Review new steps after the class to get the timing right, and slow fast steps down to watch at 1/4 speed.
    • Expert tips help you avoid common mistakes and become a better partner.
    • Use the choreography tools to increase your range of steps and enjoy your dancing more!

    When I discovered Ballroom Genie I was trying to teach my other half how to dance and I was looking for a range of steps to find in one place. I was amazed at how accessible the information I need is. There has never been such a large library of figures in one place. Absolutely brilliant!

    Medallists

    • Watch the technique you’re learning in action: study foot positions, heels and toes, and alignments — seen from 9 different directions. Check amounts of rotation using the top-down view.
    • Expert advice emphasizes key points and common mistakes for many popular figures.
    • Use suggested precedes, follows, and related figures to combine the steps you’ve learned into new groups. Related steps help you compare the same figure’s technique in different dances.

    A brilliant reference to use alongside private lessons and classes. You can really see everything clearly thanks to the customisable views and angles. Being able to slow down the speed was brilliant to really see how the more complex footwork is done.
