5 stars isn’t enough! I’ve been attending group classes here for a couple of years. After seeing some recent false posts, I felt compelled to post this and share my own review. I take private lessons with an independent teacher and have only been paying for group c...

Such a lovely dance studio! Ive been attending the drop in classes for about a month now and have loved every second of it! I was nervous about attending classes by myself and as a total beginner. That fear was erased the second I walked in the door. The staff and...

2025 July 4.5★ Located by the beaches, this building offers space for dancing and some exercise area. Though I'm sure it's targeted for dancing. Great sized facility. Just right and not too big that you feel left out. Friday $5 merengue special is worth checking ou...

Why should we take wedding dance lessons?
Your first dance is one of the most memorable moments of your wedding day. Even a handful of lessons will help you feel more relaxed, confident and connected on the dance floor, and you learn a skill you can enjoy together for years.
What happens at our first lesson?
Your first lesson is all about getting to know you. We chat about your wedding, venue, song and the style you are imagining, then get you moving right away and leave you with a clear plan.
Do we need to choose our song before we start?
Not at all. Bring a few favourites and we will help you find the perfect fit. We build strong fundamentals first, then tailor the choreography to your music.
Do we have to learn a choreographed routine?
No. Some couples want a fully choreographed dance, others something simple and natural. We can teach lead and follow, create a custom routine, or combine both.
How long should our first dance be? Can you edit our music?
Most first dances are 90 seconds to 2 minutes. If your song is longer, we will help you choose the best section or edit it for you. Music editing is included.
When should we start lessons?
We recommend starting 2–4 months before your wedding. That said, we have helped many couples prepare in just a few weeks, and we will build a plan around your timeline.
We have never danced before. Is that okay?
Absolutely. Most of the couples we work with are complete beginners, and lessons are tailored to your experience level.
Can we do a surprise mash-up or switch songs halfway?
Yes. We edit the music so the switch lands cleanly, then choreograph each part so the change looks planned.
Can we include a dip or a lift?
Dips, yes, taught safely and practised until they feel easy. Lifts depend on your comfort, fitness and outfit, and we will be honest about what will look great on the day.
Your first dance starts with a conversation
