Private Wedding Dance Lessons

Personal dance instruction is a streamlined and customized way to learn for your wedding. In a private lesson, you receive the full attention of your instructor. Whether you want to learn a choreographed first dance or basic steps and patterns, your teacher will design the lessons based on your requests, needs, dance experience, and learning styles.

Your instructor will move at a pace that is comfortable for the both of you.

You will get the detailed instruction and help you want to gain the skills you need to feel confident for your first dance at your wedding. You will learn enough to allow you to look and feel natural and spontaneous; you’ll learn the secrets of leading and following smoothly; you’ll experience the fun and romance of partner dancing, and you’ll leave with a sense of relief and triumph.

You can schedule private dance lessons at your convenience.

Bring your first song if you’ve chosen one, and learn the specific dance(s) that will work for your song or we will help you choose a song. You may also want to learn what to do for the “parents’ dances” or for other music you’ll be enjoying at the wedding.

The most common wedding dance questions:

• What style of dance should we learn for the song we chose? Couples dance to all kinds of contemporary music and classics. We can help you choose the right dance or mix of dances which may turn out to be a Foxtrot, Swing, Cha Cha, Rumba, Waltz, or something completely different. You can choose your dance style based on either your song, or by the amount of time you want to devote to learning and vision you have for your wedding dance.
• Should we choreograph our dance? You don’t have to memorize a “routine.” You will surprise yourself with how easy it is to look polished with a simple repertoire of moves with no memorization of sequences. We don’t want you to look stiff, like deers in the headlights while your guests stare at you. If you have more time and what something more complex, then you can have a beautifully choreographed wedding dance.
• Can we dance to something really different? Absolutely! If it has a beat, we can teach you to dance to it. Your first dance is a unique expression of you, and you don’t need to to fit any mold. You want to love your dance!
