How we handle lead and follow
We try the routine with each of you leading and keep whatever feels natural. You can also trade the lead mid-song. The dip goes to whoever has the steadier base.
Parent dances work the same way: mother-son, father-son, mother-daughter or anyone who raised you.

Questions people ask
Will the instructor assume one of us is the bride?
No. We ask how you want to be addressed and build the dance around the two of you.
Can we choose any song we like for our first dance?
Yes, absolutely! Your first dance song is entirely your choice. We will choreograph steps that fit your selected music and tempo.
What if one of us has never danced before?
That's perfectly fine! Many couples come to us with no prior dance experience. Our private lessons are designed for all skill levels, focusing on building your confidence and making you comfortable.
