ETIQUETTE RULES OF DANCE
  1. Good manners should prevail in any social situation.
  2. When asked to dance please be considerate of people's feelings. Being turned down when asked to dance can undermine the dancers confidence. Please be curtious and tactful with a reason and make an efford to seek that person out later for a dance.
  3. It is unacceptable behaviour to instruct or criticize the partner or any part of the dance.
  4. Men: A dance should start out with the basics and progress only at the rate that she seems to follow. If the lady attempts something other than what was lead, smile and take credit for the pattern. No matter what, be a gentleman.
  5. Ladies: Accept a dance gracefully, good, bad or indifferent. Make those few minutes memorable.
WEDDING CHOREOGRAPHY
Are you getting married or know someone who has just become engaged? That first dance is special . . . have your dance professionally choreographed to make it the most entertaining and exciting dance you will remember. Make it all perfect! I usually suggest that you start well in advance of your wedding date.
  • Group and Private coaching available.
  • Social Dancing for many occasions!
