Sridhar K. says, "I had hired Apurv Jain after reading the reviews from others who had taken classes from him . I wanted to do a father daughter dance for my daughter's wedding. I have never danced in my life and was very apprehensive. I must say, Apurv made all my fears melt away, by making me very comfortable and choreographed a very fast song, in an uncomplicated, simple which, I could perform with practice. He is a very warm, friendly person and he is genuinely interested in making sure that you perform well. He would ask us to send him our practice videos and give us his advise on how to improve. He showed us tips and tricks to make our dance eye pleasing. I definitely would recommend Apurv for any bollywood dance lessons." Read more

Your ballroom dance questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

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.

I loved the personal attention I got from my DPRdance Lessons. I spent time one on one with an instructor who developed our lesson plans for my personal needs! At one point I wanted to bring friends in for a group lesson, and they set the class up for me no problem!

I love dancing at this studio!!! The instructors are very talented and genuinely want to help you become a better dancer. We have so much fun and learn many dances -- cha cha, mambo, tango, foxtrot to name a few. I have become more fit and having the best time. It's the place to be.

Apurv is a great teacher. My girlfriend and I have been going to him for lessons for 2 months now and we have seen amazing progress already. Apurv made us feel welcome from the first day we met and continues to make each lesson fun and challenging for both of us. He caters to both of our learning styles. Since my girlfriend understands and knows the songs better she does better with the songs. For me, he translates the songs so I can understand why we are doing some steps and breaks the steps down for me to follow along easily.
