This first dance Speed Class is a two hour back-to-back private lesson scheduled at your convenience. It’s for busy couples who want a one and done situation. The class is designed so that, by the time you finish, you will have a complete plan for your dance song from beginning to end. This class is for couples who want to do more than just the "high school clutch and sway” but still want to keep it fairly simple but graceful.
​
You will learn the way to walk out onto the dance floor, how and when to begin dancing, “dance position” which is the way you hold your partner, lead and follow, how to work with your DJ/band to make the most of your song, how to hear and dance to the beat, several spins, a progressive step, which allows you to move around the dance floor, and two different ways to end your dance which one includes a dip. You will even learn, a proven strategy on how to camouflage a mistake and make it look like that's what you meant to do.
The goal is for you to feel polished, self-assured and natural. And to even be able to carry on a conversation together smiling, laughing and enjoying yourselves.
​The majority of wedding couples find the class is enough for them to have a successful first dance but some supplement the class with an additional private lesson or two to solidify the information they've learned or to add more dance patterns. It's important that you have your first dance song chosen before class or a few contenders as to not waste any time.
Call, email or text to schedule your lesson. Some students take the class with another couple who happens to also be getting married or with their parents. It makes it just that much more fun to share the experience.
Testimonials
Veronica & Tim Caldwell
"We took the 2-hour group class, and it was SO HELPFUL. After two hours with Michele my husband was empowered to practice, set the pace and lead. The class itself was super fun, and Michele's words of wisdom - what people will remember, what to do if/when you mess up, etc. - were with us on the dance floor on our wedding day and carried us through
I am so grateful we took this class and highly recommend it!!!"
Heather Carey & Alex Ganz
“We took the 2 hour speed course…I was shocked at how much work we were able to get done during the course of one lesson. Michele is a miracle worker and was really able to break down the moves for us to feel confident going into our wedding.”
Rob & Molly Garrone
“It was a pleasure to take a one-time group lesson with Michele. She is firm but very kind, and makes the most of the time you spend with her. She took the time to really listen to our song and let us know how best to communicate to our band about performing it so that we wouldn't have any trouble dancing to a live version versus the recording.”
