FAQS
WHETHER YOU JUST WANT TO LEARN A FEW THINGS FOR GOING OUT CLUBBING, WEDDING CHOREOGRAPHY, OR EVEN TAKING UP DANCING AS A HOBBY AND COMPETING, AFTER LEARNING TO DANCE, YOUR LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME! THOUGH THE BEST WAY TO GET ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS ANSWERED IS TO JUST CALL OR EMAIL, HERE ARE SOME OF THE MOST COMMON QUESTIONS WE GET.
General QuestionsWedding Dance QuestionsPackage & Class Cards redemptions Groupon & outside VouchersGift Cards
What should I wear?
Wear what is comfortable. Most people dress "nicely casual." When first learning you don't need special shoes, however, dress shoes and high heels with leather soles have a tendency to stick much less to the floor than shoes with rubber soles but comfortable dance sneakers are ideal.
Do I need a dance partner?
No, a dance partner is not required in order to attend/enjoy any of our classes. Of course learning to dance with a partner has it's advantages, but we are around 50/50 singles and couples... you'll be right at home in an atmosphere where you can meet other singles or couples. Remember, dancing is a "social" activity. Improve your life... learn to dance!
How many lessons does it take?
Now that's an impossible question to answer, however... That depends upon a number or factors, like: the number of dances you would like to learn; if you keep a consistent schedule with your lessons; and your individual strengths and weaknesses. The quickest way is just to come in and have fun... your lessons should not be stressful, they should be fun and relaxing... that's how you'll get further, quicker.question go to app settings and press "Manage Questions" button.
What's the advantage of private lessons?
That depends upon your goals and your time frame. If you need wedding choreography, then a combination of both is definitely an advantage if you start early enough. If you wait until the last few weeks, then privates are the only way to go. With private lessons you will learn at your pace and get the advanced techniques sooner, since your teacher can take you from the point you are at each lesson. Group lessons serve as a great way to learn the basics without spending as much money in the private sessions, which can be used to fine-tune and polish. Group classes also give you a good introduction to dance styles you haven't tried yet. Most of our students use private lessons to work on the more technical aspects of the dancing that make them quality dancers, and then use group classes practice sessions to learn the basics. You should definitely try both, but start with private coaching if you feel really insecure at first. In such cases private coaching is ideal.
