Short and sweet

A 60-Second First Dance

A minute is long enough to feel special and short enough that nobody checks their phone. It is also the easiest version to learn.

Three moves

Everything fits in three pieces.

  • One basic step
  • One turn
  • One dip to finish

Ask for a short edit

Most songs run three to four minutes. Ask your DJ to fade or cut at about 60 seconds, or to invite guests onto the floor at that point. Bring the edit to your lesson so we time the dip to the cut.

Questions people ask

How many lessons does a 60-second dance take?

Often one or two. The 3-lesson package gives time to polish it.
