Can I get a refund?<\/strong><br \/>\n1. Flow points expire after 1 year. You can renew expired dates- we will deduct 0.25 points\/point or partial point to renew.<br \/>\n2. Point purchases are non-refundable.\u00a0 You can transfer them to other students, but there is a transfer fee of 0.25 points\/point or partial point.\u00a0 So buying more points for a discount and transferring to a friend is not efficient.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Can I use points to register my friends for classes or events?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: No.\u00a0 You can transfer points to a friend for 0.25 points\/point or partial point, but you cannot directly use your points to pay for another person.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Are there any incentives to earn bonus points?<\/strong><br \/>\nA1: Check in early (24 hours before classtime) 20 times and we will give you one bonus Flow point.<br \/>\nA2: Refer a new student to the studio, and if they purchase a level 1-3 course, we will give you one bonus Flow point. (Only one referral point per student, and two people cannot &#8220;refer&#8221; each other).\u00a0 <em>*The new student must enter your email* on the registration page for you to get the referral point.*<\/em><\/p>\n<p>*If we see that someone is abusing an incentive program such as by making duplicate accounts, we will cancel those bonuses and may ask the person not to return to the studio<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Are classes taught in Chinese or English?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: It depends on the students. Most classes are taught mainly in Chinese, but if some students cannot speak Chinese, the teachers will also explain in English. All teachers can speak sufficient English to teach, so don\u2019t worry if you cannot speak Chinese!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Why should I learn to dance?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: Everyone has different reasons to learn dance, of course, but generally people learn to dance because dancing makes them happy. When you begin to dance, you become more aware of your body and learn a new way to communicate with people. Dance is not just movement- it is also communication- between partners, performers and an audience, or even with oneself as a form of meditation. When you understand how to communicate with dance you can meet and form relationships with people not just in Taipei but throughout the world. Many people who start dancing with a one hour class once a week soon find themselves going to parties every week and eventually traveling internationally to attend dance events and meet international friends who have visited Taiwan. Dance can be something you do only in the studio if that\u2019s what you want, or it can open the whole world to you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: But I am too\u2026 (young, old, out of shape, introverted)\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nA: If you enjoy music and learning new ways to move your body and interacting with people in a way that doesn\u2019t require a lot of talking, you can learn to dance. Dancers are all different ages, body shapes, and personalities. If you genuinely desire to learn dance and can open your mind and body to be taught and interact with new people in a considerate and respectful way, don\u2019t let fear talk you out of taking your first step into the studio. You can do it!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Do I need any experience?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: We regularly open courses for complete beginners. These classes are designed for people who have absolutely no experience in any form of dance. If you\u2019ve never danced before, or it\u2019s been a long time, or you haven\u2019t danced that particular dance style before, these beginner classes are for you! We also have higher level classes which require that you have the level of experience to keep up with the curriculum.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Do I need to bring a partner?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: No! All dancers rotate in every regular class, so there is no need to bring a partner.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Do I have to rotate with other students in class?\u00a0 I only want to train with my partner.<br \/>\n<\/strong>A: We teach social dance and so it is essential to dance with many different people, so in group classes, everyone rotates.\u00a0 If you wish to train only with a specific partner, we offer private training sessions as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 5%; padding-right: 5%;\">\n<p><strong>Q: How much do dance classes cost?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: Regular classes are 1 Flow point\/hour.\u00a0 You can see the various discounts we offer at <a href=\"https:\/\/flowtaipei.com\/en\/flow-points\/\">Flow Points<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: How much do private lessons cost?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: It depends on the teacher.\u00a0 Contact the teacher you would like to learn from directly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: How long do I have to learn before I can enjoy dancing socially (at parties)?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: This answer is different for everyone. Some people are very brave and start going to parties after just a few classes. Others take a little longer to feel comfortable. It\u2019s up to how much effort you put in and your level of self-confidence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What should I wear to dance class?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: Please wear comfortable clothing that you can move freely in. Don\u2019t wear clothes that are too baggy or too tight. If you do not have dance shoes in the beginning, wear whatever shoes you feel comfortable in. It is better if the soles of your shoes are not rubber as rubber will make it harder to turn.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What kind of parties does Flow hold?<\/strong><br \/>\nA1: Flow Friday Unity Social- 3 times a month, Friday 21:45-1:00 (Bachata\/Salsa in the main room and Zouk in the small room)<br \/>\nA2: Bachata Mi Amor Once a month, Friday 21:45-1:00 (Bachata in the main room, Zouk in C room)<br \/>\nA3: Sunset Zouk- Once a month, Saturday 15:00 &#8211; 19:30 (100% Zouk)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Does Flow host any other kind of events?<\/strong><br \/>\nA: Yes, we also arrange many special events, such as weekenders with Zouk\/Bachata\/Salsa artists and bigger events like the Flow Anniversary in March, <a href=\"https:\/\/taiwanzoukfestival.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Taiwan Zouk Festival and Marathon<\/a> in May, <a href=\"https:\/\/taiwanlambadafestival.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Taiwan Lambada Festival<\/a> in September, and <a
