Our Method for teaching Wedding Dance
The secret to success is in applying certain principles of partner dancing to you learning – how to lead, how to follow, how to stay with the music, how to connect with each other – and come up with a relaxing and enjoyable dance. More importantly, my method will allow you to improvise during your dance at any time and any place. While I teach Argentine Tango in Atlanta, you do not have to dance tango. You can choose any song you like, for as long as it has a clear danceable beat. There is no need for memorization of complex choreography.
Your First Dance will be glamorous, relaxed, and memorable. It’s memory will last a lifetime because everything you learn with me about dancing will stay with you, and can be put to good use at any Reunion, Party, Dance Club, or Social Event.
Important side benefits of our training are (among others):
- learning to connect better with your partner Off the dance floor as well.
- learning the true meaning of leading & following (they’re equally important)
