Bride and Groom
How many lessons do we need? It's always different for each couple and depends on variables such as: length of dance, level of choreography and amount of time you as a couple can spend practicing in between lessons. Most find purchasing your lessons in packages to be the best choice. This provides you a discounted rate, and by scheduling ahead of time, you can ensure lesson availability. Lessons may also be purchased individually if you prefer. Lessons are 45 minutes in length.
Please contact us if you need help deciding what package would best fit your first dance vision. Once you decide on your dance package, you can call or email to book your first lesson (Contact Us Now). Payment is not needed until the first lesson and we accept cash or check at the studio.
