Learn To Dance
Learning to dance is a fun activity - you watch, listen, try, and practise - and some more practice helps a lot. Then you
watch, listen, try and practise another step or two. It's usually better if you do this as a couple, and did we mention? - practice
helps a lot!
How can we Learn - - - ?
There's three main ways to take dance lessons. You can join a class (SCROLL DOWN for details of new classes from Mel and

SPECIAL NOTE for 2012
All of our current Classes are full up untill the end of January 2013. We may be able to fit in Private Lessons during that time - see below!
Private Lessons - - Can I Learn Faster?
You'll find Private Lessons on a one to one basis are probably the fastest way to learn, similar to the learning curve you've seen on
TV in "Strictly Come Dancing" - just don't expect results in a week. Whilst most people can learn to dance, even if they
think they can't, or think they've two left feet, you won't have up to ten hours a day, six or seven days a week to learn and practice as
the celebrities on television do!
If you decide Private Dance Lessons is the way you want to go, please call us on 07811 896866
for more details, and to set up suitable dates and times for your schedule.
First Wedding Dance Lessons - - ?
If you'd like a special dance routine for your special day, we can help! We can choreograph a Dance to suit your choice of music,
or suggest a choice of music, or we specialise in surprise traditional dances for your Wedding Day - the Waltz. Click Here to visit our
separate page for more information.
