Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Teaching beginners is our specialty. Ballroom dancing is simply walking with timing and structure. If you can walk, we can teach you to dance.

Your first visit is a 30-minute intro lesson for $25, for one person or two, and it is free if you complete our short online quiz first. After that, most students choose a package: 10 lessons at $152 each, down to $140 each for 40 lessons, and 20% less again with a 6-month VIP membership. A single 45-minute lesson is $160. Every package and membership is on our pricing page.

No. The majority of our students come alone. In private lessons, you will dance directly with your instructor. In group classes, we rotate partners frequently so you will dance with everyone.

Comfortable, non-restrictive clothing works best. For footwear, choose a smooth sole — leather, suede, or hard plastic. Avoid thick rubber-soled shoes or boots; they grip the floor and make turning difficult. If you don't have anything else, sneakers are fine for your first lesson. Thin, smooth soles turn best. Dance shoes are recommended but not required.

Yes, and this is actually the situation we specialize in. We design every wedding routine around the couple's natural movement and ability level. You don't need to be a dancer — you need to look and feel confident. We make that happen.

Most couples take 15 to 25 lessons. With four weeks to go, about 12 lessons at two or three visits a week gets you a confident, simple and sweet first dance to your song. With eight to ten weeks, about 22 lessons twice a week leaves room for styling, spins and dips, and a longer runway is where a signature moment and the parent dances come in.

Closer to the date than that? Come in anyway, we can still make something beautiful. The packages for each timeline are on our pricing page.

Yes. New students start with a 30-minute intro private lesson for $25, and it's free if you complete our short online quiz first. We'll see where you are, talk about your goals and match you with the right instructor and classes.

Private lessons give you one-on-one instruction with a dedicated instructor who focuses entirely on your technique and goals. Group classes are social, energetic, and a great way to practice with many partners in a structured environment. Most students do both.

Yes — every program follows a real curriculum, taught in sequence, so each class builds on the last. But the steps are the backbone, not the point. What you are actually learning is how to communicate with a partner, how to hear and use the music, and how your own body expresses the character of each dance — skills you keep and can use on any dance floor, not just in class.
