Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find what you're looking for?
Chat with our friendly team

Can I take a challenge more than once?
Yes — 100%! You can take any challenge as many times as you want. Even though the structure stays the same, each round includes brand new combos, transitions, and music. Joining again is a great way to keep practicing your fundamentals, build confidence, and discover a completely different flow. Every challenge will feel fresh, but still give you that solid structure and progression.
What if I can't attend a livestream class?
No worries! All live classes are recorded and uploaded to your Program Home Page. You’ll be able to watch them anytime, at your own pace!
What equipment do I need for class?
You’ll need a computer, tablet, or phone to join the live stream on Zoom. You will also need a free zoom account.
How long will I have access to my Program content?
You’ll have access to the program content, including recordings and resources, for the duration of the program, as well as extended access based on the program length. With a 4-week program, you'll get an additional 4 weeks of access after the course ends. For an 8-week program, you'll have an extra 8 weeks. After that, we may offer extended access or membership options for continued practice.
Are there any refunds if I change my mind after enrolling?
As per our terms and conditions, all purchases are final, and no refunds are issued after enrollment. Make sure you’re ready to commit before signing up!
How long are the classes?
Each class lasts about 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the lesson and how interactive the session becomes.
How do I access the live classes and resources?

What if I'm struggling with a dance move?
Don’t stress! Everyone learns at their own pace, and that's completely okay! Sometimes certain moves or techniques click right away, while others take a little longer to master. Remember to be patient with yourself—learning something new takes time. The real magic is in enjoying the process and embracing each part of the journey (progress not perfection). Please feel free to reach out to your instructors - ask for tips in our private Discord group and during the livestream classes! You'll also be able to re-watch the class recordings and practice at slower tempos ✨
How can I stay motivated throughout the Program?
One of the best ways to stay motivated is to connect with others who are taking the program with you. Sharing your experiences, hearing what’s helping them, holding each other accountable and knowing that you’re not alone makes all the difference. Encouragement from your shuffle fam can be incredibly uplifting, and offering that same kindness to others creates a supportive, positive space for everyone. Share your day to day progress. Share your favorite music. Share your favorite moves. Let’s lift each other up and enjoy the journey together! 🐛🦋
How can I participate in the Program if I have a busy schedule?
Absolutely! This program is designed to be flexible. If you can’t attend the live sessions, you can always catch up with the class recordings at a time that works best for you. You can learn and practice at your own pace.
Do I need to submit videos of my progress?
Submitting videos is completely optional! If you’d like feedback from the instructors or want to share your progress with the community, feel free to post in our private Discord group. We encourage sharing, but it’s all about your comfort level.
What happens after I finish the program?
Once you’ve completed the program, you’ll have the option to join the next level of classes or keep sharpening your skills with the recorded videos at your own pace. Plus, we offer a membership options for ongoing training and access to new classes to keep you growing and dancing! 💃✨
Can I download the class videos to watch offline?
Currently, the class videos are only available for streaming online through your Program Home Page or the Shuffle House mobile app. This allows us to keep content up to date and readily accessible to you.
Will I recieve feedback from my instructor?
Yes! While the program is self-paced, you can always reach out to instructors for feedback on your progress by submitting videos in the Discord group. We’re here to support your journey and help you refine your technique.
