Wedding Choreography Dance Lessons

Getting married? Let us choreograph your first dance as husband and wife. We'll work with you to teach you the basics of the Waltz, Cha Cha, Salsa, Swing, Foxtrot, Rhumba and/or Tango, choreograph your first dance to your wedding song and work with you until both the bride and groom feel comfortable.

Don't want a traditional first dance? No problem! We've helped couples surprise their guests by incorporating an upbeat hip hop portion in to their dance or mixing a romantic waltz with a sexy tango.

Daddy/daughter, mother/son and bridal party choreography and bachelorette parties also available.

Ready to schedule your first lesson? Call the studio at 734.207.8970.

Adult Dance Classes

We're so excited to see our adult dance program continue to grow. We currently offer Ballroom, Ballet, Tap, Hip Hop, Pilates and Yoga and have had requests for Modern and Jazz for adults.

It's inspiring to see adults who haven't danced in years or have never taken a dance class follow their passion. We love dance and are excited to share it with everyone!

Thinking of joining one of our adult classes? Our two most frequently asked questions are:

1. What do I wear?
While we do have a strict dress code for our school-aged dancers, we are very flexible with our adult students. We understand you may not feel comfortable in a leotard and tights or ballroom heels and that is no problem. For many of our adult classes students wear yoga pants and a tank top. We just ask that you don't wear jeans or anything too baggy.

2. Can I drop in to a class?
Absolutely! Want to just try one class before committing to signing up or aren't sure if you're beginning or intermediate level? No problem. We offer a $15 drop in fee for all of our adult classes.

Hope to see in class you soon!

Halloween Week Fun!

It's that time of year again! Our dance students and staff are invited to celebrate Halloween this week by dressing up in their best Halloween or old dance costumes.





Ms Mimi stole the show on Monday by dressing as Ms Laura in cargo pants, a t shirt, pigtails and a bandana. One of Ms Laura's students actually thought Ms Mimi was his teacher!


We can't wait to see everyone's creativity the rest of the week. Happy Halloween!



What has been your favorite costume this week?
