Parent dance

Father-Daughter Dance Lessons in Chicago

The parent dance comes with the 6-lesson package, $749 for the couple. It is built to be simple enough for a parent who has never danced and short enough that nobody is counting nervously by the second chorus.

Keep it simple

We use one easy step and a gentle turn, set to a shortened version of the song. Ninety seconds is plenty. The DJ can fade it out and invite guests to join.

  • One basic step
  • One turn under the arm
  • A short song or an edit
  • No experience needed

Not just fathers

The same lesson covers mother-son, mother-daughter, father-son, and the person walking you down the aisle, whether that is a grandparent, an uncle, a sibling or a friend.

The parent can come to one or two of the six lessons; the rest go to your first dance.

Questions people ask

Does the parent need to come to every lesson?

No. One or two visits is usually enough for a short parent dance.
