Weddings often include dancing as part of the reception festivities. The staff at 3rd Street Dance are specialists in preparing couples for this once in a lifetime evening. Our goal is to help you appear elegant and feel comfortable while dancing in front of your family and friends.

Couples will often take a session of swing or ballroom classes to begin their dance training. These classes are taught in eight week sessions: the specific dates and times are posted on our class schedule. The ballroom class covers the smooth,  romantic dances such as foxtrot, waltz, and tango. In each session you will learn how to dance to a variety of popular music, such as Frank Sinatra or Etta James.

After having completed our group session, we recommend that couples take a series of private lessons to focus exclusively on their "First Dance." We can customize a first dance for you that will
make you look and feel great dancing to your favorite song. If you need help picking a song, our teachers can assist you in making a selection.

At 3rd Street Dance all couples taking private lessons are guaranteed their own studio. This way there are no distractions and you don't have to share music or floor space with anyone else, as is all too common at most other studios.

It is best to begin dance lessons at least two or three months before your wedding. That way the lessons can proceed at a comfortable pace. The wedding package of four private lessons and eight group classes will meet the needs of most couples. However, it is not uncommon for couples to take as many as 10 private lessons for a performance that really shines.

 

If you are reading this page at the last minute and you're getting married next weekend....don't worry.  Come in for a private lesson and we can still help you to impress your mother-in-law.

Whether it's for your FIRST DANCE or a lifetime of
 dancing, a series of dance lessons can help you and your
 fiance' share a wonderful experience together.
