Tanzschule Maxixe

For over 30 years, MAXIXE in Berlin-Kreuzberg has stood for dancing without a dress code and without rigid role models. The free dance school on Fidicinstraße offers couples and individuals a wide range of courses, from Salsa to Lindy Hop, and makes for an especially great Valentine's Day gift as a dance class voucher.

Dance Class for Valentine’s Day: Why an evening at MAXIXE lasts longer than a bouquet of flowers?

Flowers wilt, chocolates are eaten. A dance class as a Valentine’s Day gift, however, remains. What began in 1983 as Berlin’s first free dance school culminated in 1994 with the founding of the MAXIXE dance school by Ele Busch. The alternative concept was the answer to common dance school conventions: a broad program, mixed and same-sex dancing, equal roles for dance partners. MAXIXE still strikes a chord today.

Dance Classes for Couples in Berlin-Kreuzberg

Couples and individuals will find a diverse range of options here, from Standard and Latin American dances to Lindy Hop, Swing, and Salsa, as well as Argentine Tango or Dance Fitness. So, if you prefer to try something together for Valentine’s Day rather than consuming something, Fidicinstraße 3 is the right place. The dance instructors encourage couples to choose their very own dance style, whether classic waltz, lively disco fox, or an energetic Lindy Hop. Whether you have prior experience or are about to make your first joint appearance on the dance floor, the dance school supports you every step of the way.

Giving a Dance Voucher: How it works at MAXIXE

If you’re unsure which course suits the recipient for Valentine’s Day, opt for a dance voucher. MAXIXE has designed dance vouchers available at the office, with a freely selectable value. The recipient can then redeem the voucher for dance classes, workshops, or even dance trips. A Valentine’s Day gift in Berlin can hardly be more flexible.

In addition, MAXIXE regularly offers the Tango Café every Saturday from 15:00 to 19:00, with admission prices starting from 7 Euros reduced and 10 Euros regular. Those who come by can dance, meet like-minded people, and enjoy the afternoon in a stylish ambience with coffee and cake. This is a lovely Valentine’s Day experience for two, even without previous course attendance. Since January 1, 2025, Josefina Schlie has continued MAXIXE, and the Kreuzberg dance venue has thus started fresh into a new era.
