Questions

I’ve never danced. Is that OK?

Absolutely. Many of our private students are complete beginners, especially couples learning a first dance.

How many lessons will I need for a first dance?

It really depends on you: some couples pick it up in a few sessions, others like a little longer. We’ll talk it through when you get in touch and plan around your wedding date.

Can my partner or friends join?

Yes, lessons work for couples and small groups too.

Can you teach at our venue?

Yes, if there’s a suitable space. Let us know where when you get in touch.
