Private Lessons
Private lessons are a great way to advance your dancing really quickly. They are often used to catch up on class material, to prepare for big events (like a wedding), to work on specific technique or moves, or to take some big steps forward after being at the same level for a while. Privates can be arranged for a single student, a dance couple, or for several couples who would like to work together on the same things.
