DANCEWEST FIRST DANCE

Feel confident. Dance together. Make it yours.

Your first dance does not have to feel like a performance.

Whether you want to learn a few simple steps, feel more comfortable moving together or create a choreography that is completely your own, our sessions are designed around you.

We work with couples of all ages and abilities, including those who have never danced before. There is no pressure to be perfect and no expectation that you need to arrive knowing what you want. We will help you find a way of dancing that feels natural, comfortable and enjoyable.

Your dance, your way

Every couple is different, so your first dance should be too.

We can work with your chosen song, help you find the right music, or create something around the song that already means something to you. Your choreography can be simple and understated, playful and relaxed, or more ambitious and theatrical.

Perhaps you want to feel confident enough to enjoy the moment without worrying about your feet. Perhaps you have always wanted to learn to dance together. Or perhaps you have an idea for something a little unexpected.

We will build the dance around you. No experience needed!

What we offer

  • Feel Confident - Learn the essentials and develop the confidence to enjoy your first dance without feeling self conscious.

  • Create a Routine - Work with a choreographer to create a personalised routine to your chosen music.

  • Learn at Your Own Pace - Choose a one off session or a series of lessons, depending on how much support and preparation you would like.

  • Make It Yours - Your dance can reflect your personalities, your relationship and the way you naturally move together.

“Thank you so much. We were incredibly daunted by the prospect of everyone watching us dance but with your support we felt confident and in control".

From your first step to the dance floor

Whether you have six months to prepare or your wedding is just around the corner, we can help you make the most of the time you have.

Come with a song, an idea or simply a desire to feel more confident. We will take it from there.
