How It Works

Train. Master the Patterns. Launch Classes.

1

Train

Complete a one-day certification in person or virtually, or train on-demand at your own pace.

2

Master the Patterns

Learn interchangeable patterns across 10 dances instead of memorizing fixed choreography.

3

Launch Classes

Start teaching with ongoing monthly patterns, playlists, education, and instructor support.

The LaBlast Difference

Patternography Turns Ballroom Dance Into a Teachable Formula.

LaBlast’s proprietary method organizes ballroom dance into structured, repeatable fitness patterns, teaching instructors why movement works—not simply what comes next.

Patterns Members Can Follow

Authentic ballroom movement becomes clear, repeatable fitness patterns that make classes easy to follow.

Teaching in the Moment

Adaptable patterns let instructors stay present, read the room, and adjust in real time.

Much Less Prep Time

Instructors pair familiar dance patterns with songs instead of memorizing disconnected choreography, reducing preparation time by up to 90%.
