First Dance Classes in Chicago

It really depends on what you’re envisioning! Are you hoping for a show-stopping first dance or something more simple? How long is your song? Do you have any dance experience? Will you have time to practice between lessons? These are all things we take into consideration.

Most couples take a combination of both private lessons and group classes that help keep them consistent in learning something new together.

But don’t worry — you don’t have to figure everything out right now. Start with a consultation or first lesson, talk through your goals, and your instructor will help you map out a plan. There’s no pressure, no hard sales — just honest, professional advice to help you look and feel your best. goes here

Your first dance doesn’t have to be over the top unless you want it to be. Whether you’re picturing a few simple, elegant moves or a full-on performance, we’ll personalize everything to match your style and comfort level.

Here’s where we can help set your expectations: Looking natural and comfortable together doesn’t happen overnight. Even for a simple dance, you’ll need more than one or two lessons to move in sync, feel (and look) relaxed, and actually enjoy the moment.

Think about the rest of your wedding—you’re hiring professionals to help you look great, stay organized, and feel confident throughout the process. Dance lessons are no different.

Our recommendation is to start early and stay consistent. This means, the sooner, the better. If you want to look natural, at ease, and truly connected on your wedding day — especially doing something you’ve never done before, time is the best gift you can give yourselves.
