How To Get Started Dancing

1. What kind of dance do you want to learn? Fast? Slow? Romantic? What kind of music do you like? Maybe start by learning to dance to your favorite music. Email me at gottadance.nicole@gmail.com and I can help you out!

2. Do you prefer group classes or private lessons?

Group Classes: You will typically rotate partners. Some instructors will allow you to stay with the person you came with, but in general rotating is encouraged. You usually are not required to come with a partner, but always ask to confirm.

Private Lessons: You will have your own dance tutor. You may take a private lesson by yourself or with someone else. Private lessons are often a good place to start for men. I have often heard from male students that they prefer private lessons - especially at first - because it is less pressure. Email me to schedule your first lesson.

If you are serious about learning to dance and you want to speed up the process take both group and private lessons; you will learn different things in each.
