Comfortable, non-restrictive clothing works best. For footwear, choose a smooth sole — leather, suede, or hard plastic. Avoid thick rubber-soled sneakers or boots as they grip the floor and make turning difficult.
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.
Yes. We offer a special introductory private lesson at a discounted rate for first-time students. This 30-minute session is designed to evaluate your current level, discuss your goals, and pair you with the right instructor.

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.
We recommend starting 4 to 6 months before your wedding date. This gives you time to build muscle memory without stress and allows for a relaxed, enjoyable process. That said, we offer intensive "crash course" packages for couples with 4 weeks or less to prepare.
Pricing varies by lesson package and instructor level. We offer introductory packages for new students at a reduced rate so you can experience the studio before committing. You can see current package and VIP membership rates on our pricing page, or book a consultation and we'll walk you through the options.
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.
We publish the full syllabus for every program — see what you’ll learn, program by program.
