BRIDAL TESTIMONY!

Meghan ~ 9/20/09
We absolutely give Amanda 5 stars!!! She was so professional and learning our wedding dance was one of the best parts of our wedding planning. She made everything so much fun and really made it so easy to learn real ballroom dance moves! We loved her philosophy of we are not "renting the dance moves just for the day of the wedding" but she wanted us to be able to "own them the rest of our lives". and this is so true...we could absolutely go to any wedding or event now and foxtrot or cha-cha the rest of our lives. I would HIGHLY recommend her services....we had a blast and are so glad we met her!

Our favorite wedding planning memory is for sure our dance lessons. We took lessons for our first dance from Amanda for several weeks before the wedding. We looked forward to our lessons each week - we had so much fun and lots of laughs. She is not only a talented teacher but a truly wonderful person. She was able to teach us (nondancers) in a few weeks an unforgettable first dance. She is genuinely invested in her students and went above and beyond what we expected to get out of dance lessons. I would highly recommend Amanda/Dance Because.

Dance Because is a great place to have some fun and enjoy yourself learning to dance. Amanda, the instructor, is terrific. She takes the time with you and really shows you the steps in an easy to learn manner. We had her choreograph a dance for us to learn at our wedding, the dance is perfect for our song and she has done a great job with us. We have truly had a great time and so much fun, we are going to take lessons with her again after the wedding. Very highly recommend Dance Because. We love it and so will you.

Amanda of Dance Because is an excellent teacher! She is very down-to-earth and understands that students have different dance abilities. She is patient and very upbeat! Her enthusiasm is contagious, and I can’t say enough about what a wonderful and fun wedding prep experience this has been! My fiancé was very hesitant to take dance lessons, but we are having a blast and what a way to relax, calm nerves and have fun together before the big day!!! I highly recommend Dance Because!!!

Here are some tips to get you started:

Don't wait until the last moment to begin dance lessons.
Start as early as 3-6 months in advance. 
You don't have to be perfect on the dance floor,
but you do want to be comfortable and look great on the video later!

You don't have to dance a traditional waltz (unless you want to).
Many dances are available to bring out your personal style. I can teach you to dance a slow, beautiful waltz or you can speed things up with a fun hustle or a cool swing.
It's your dance, so dance what you want to dance.

Dancing may relieve your stress.
Not only will you feel more confident about your moment on the dance floor, but you will also be getting exercise in those stressful months leading up to your big day. 
And don't forget, spending much-needed quality time together.

Don't worry if you don't have a song.
It's ok if you don't know what music you want to dance to.   I am here to help.  I can give you ideas, then teach you to dance accordingly to what style fits you best.

You can begin your lessons as far away or as close to the wedding day as you like. 
I will work with you to make you feel as confident as possible.

Lessons with me are comfortable and easy. 
The goal is not perfection, but a great experience for the two of you.

Private Lessons are ideal for wedding couples.
You receive individual attention that is customized specifically to your needs and wants.
