AnnW says, "In the past few years I have taken many ballroom lessons with an assortment of teachers. I have never considered myself particularly graceful or good at dancing. With Vuk I have been able to progress rapidly and learn more than I could have thought possible. He is encouraging, when a lot of my previous teachers were not. He is knowledgable, and adapts his teaching methods to fit my learning style. He is accomplished and is a Master and Grandmaster in several styles of dance. He is sneaky and knows that the best way to make me want to learn something is to say that it is really difficult. He is fun, so I am able to relax and not be nervous as I was in the beginning. With over ten years of competitive and teaching experience you can be sure that you will be learning dance steps and styling the correct way. Vuk means Wolf in Serbian. " Read more

How much do ballroom dance lessons cost?

Ballroom dance lessons cost $50 to $200 per session for up to two people, offering personalized attention and faster progress. Group classes are more affordable, averaging $15 to $40 per person, and provide a social atmosphere for learning. Many studios offer introductory specials for new students, priced between $50 and $150, to help them get started.

For those preparing for a wedding, specialized packages can cost anywhere from $400 to $1,800 or more per couple, depending on the number of lessons and level of instruction. Additional options include practice parties for applying skills in a social setting, and monthly social memberships that often include unlimited group classes and parties. Online lessons have also become popular, with some free resources available and paid membership plans ranging up to $50 per month, providing a flexible and potentially more affordable option for learning.

What do I wear to ballroom dance lessons?

Choosing the right attire for ballroom dance lessons is essential for comfort and style. Women often wear elegant, flowy dresses that allow for freedom of movement and enhance visual appeal. Fitted tops paired with flared skirts are popular, and comfortable dance shoes are crucial for support and flexibility.

Men typically opt for fitted dress shirts and tailored trousers, sometimes adding a waistcoat or jacket for a polished look. It's best to avoid baggy clothing, as it can hinder movement. Proper dance shoes are essential for both men and women, as they differ significantly from regular footwear.

Where can I take ballroom dance lessons?

You can take ballroom dance lessons at various types of venues, including dance studios, community centers, and even online platforms. Many established dance studios offer a range of classes for all skill levels, from beginners to advanced dancers. Some studios feature experienced instructors who can tailor lessons to individual needs, making them suitable for couples preparing for weddings or individuals looking to enhance their dance skills.

In addition to traditional studios, some community centers and local organizations host ballroom dance classes, providing a more casual environment. Online platforms have also become popular, offering virtual lessons that allow you to learn from home at your own pace. Whether you prefer in-person instruction or online learning, there are numerous options available to suit your schedule and preferences.

What ages can take ballroom dance lessons?

Ballroom dance lessons are accessible to individuals of all ages, making it a versatile activity for families and communities. Children can start as young as 3 or 4 years old, which is considered an ideal age for developing coordination, balance, and social skills through dance. Many studios offer classes specifically designed for younger children, often categorized as "junior" classes for ages 6 to 18. These classes not only teach the fundamentals of various ballroom styles but also promote teamwork and gender equality by encouraging interaction with partners of the opposite gender.

For adults, there is no upper age limit to begin ballroom dancing. Classes cater to a wide range of age groups, from young adults in their twenties to seniors in their nineties. Many studios host social dance events that attract diverse age demographics, fostering a welcoming environment for everyone. Whether it's a couple preparing for their wedding or seniors looking to rekindle their love for dance, ballroom dancing serves as an enjoyable way to stay active and socially engaged throughout life.

How do I choose a ballroom dance class?

Choosing the right ballroom dance class can significantly enhance your learning experience and enjoyment. With various options available, it's essential to consider your goals, preferences, and the environment that best suits your needs:

  • Class type: Decide between private lessons for personalized attention or group classes for a social atmosphere.
  • Instructor qualifications: Look for certified instructors with experience in teaching the specific dance styles you’re interested in.
  • Class offerings: Ensure the studio provides a variety of classes that cater to different skill levels and dance styles.
  • Location and accessibility: Choose a studio that is conveniently located and easily accessible to encourage regular attendance.
  • Community and atmosphere: Consider the studio's vibe–a supportive and welcoming environment can enhance your learning experience.

What questions should I ask a ballroom dance studio?

When considering a ballroom dance studio, asking the right questions can help ensure you find the best fit:

  • What are the instructors' qualifications? Inquire about their experience, certifications, and teaching styles to ensure they meet your learning preferences.
  • What types of classes do you offer? Check for a variety of class levels and dance styles to match your interests.
  • What is the class size? Smaller classes often provide more personalized attention, while larger classes may offer a more social experience.
  • What are the studio's safety standards? Ask about safety measures in place, such as CPR certification for instructors and emergency protocols.
  • Are there performance opportunities? Find out if the studio hosts showcases or competitions, which can enhance your learning experience.
  • Do you offer trial classes or introductory packages? Ask if they have special deals for newcomers, such as discounted trial classes or packages that include multiple lessons at a reduced rate.

Anne D.
I have trained with many dance instructors as an amateur dance student and I can without a doubt say that my dancing improved 100% while working with Alex. We worked together for several years and danced several styles including International Ballroom, American Smooth and Rhythm, Social, and numerous showcases. My dancing and performance abilities improved and this resulted in a significant increase in my competitive results and positive feedback from judges and coaches. Alex is able to break down areas of difficulty and give memorable analogies to assist with the learning process. I have been blessed to work with him!

Phillip is a caring and excellent teacher for people of all ages and abilities. He is very knowledgeable in dance technique but is able break it down in ways that are easy to understand for people who are new to dance. His classes are challenging in the best way and I've improved in areas I didn't think I could at my age.

Vuk was my first dance instructor. I started at 60 years of age at a time that was very difficult in my life . He made things easier and taught me well. Gave me a solid foundation of ballroom dancing. Gave me the courage and strength to perform in a showcase and compete on the dancefloor. His easy manner and "you can do anything" attitude has not only made dancing a part of my life but has given me the insight to look at other thing that seemed beyond my grasp and try my hand at them. He is an amazing young man who is a great teacher and dancer.

She was very accommodating with my level of dance. I would consider my self a bit intermediate when it come to dance. But she has taught people that have no idea how to really dance or don’t have the confidence to dance (like myself) and brings them out of their shell. She’s very patient with people when teaching choreography and makes sure that everyone is on the same page before moving on.
