Conservation
Avoid leaving trash and single-use plastics on the sand; stick to marked access points to protect dune vegetation and nesting areas.
Arrive early
Plan to arrive 15–20 minutes before start time to get checked in, warm up, and claim a good spot on the sand.
Wear sand-friendly footwear
Choose flat, flexible shoes or go barefoot—sand changes balance and light soles are easiest for learning steps.
Hydrate before class
Bring water and hydrate in advance; the hour is active and coastal evenings can still be warm and humid.
Protect valuables
Keep phones and cameras on short straps or in waterproof pouches to avoid salt and spray during dances near the surf.
Sand-friendly shoes or barefoot
Flexible flat shoes or bare feet make pivoting and balance easier on sand.
Reusable water bottle
Staying hydrated keeps energy up during active instruction in warm, humid evenings.
