Looking for just a little help with your social dancing or first dance?

There are many couples social dancing really well in our city. Not everyone wants to attend regular lessons or group classes. However it IS possible to get just a little bored with what you already know or lead, or you might want to learn a new New Vogue dance in a way thats much easier than following another couple on the floor.

PLUS not every couple wants a fully choreographed wedding routine. You might just want a few moves and variations that you can use both at your big day or at any other social occasion when dancing might happen. Just like Alice and Jamie.

Alice and Jamie

In Jamie’s case dancing in public, even in front of friends and family, was something he really wasn’t looking forward to. So he came to a few lessons by himself, not to learn a routine or steps, but to gain enough confidence so he could take Alice out on the floor.

They said “it went well and it wasn’t long before (our) parents stepped in. Thank you so much for your time and confidence building!”

So if all you need is a few new moves you can use – or a little confidence to help you get out onto the floor please call or email, I’m sure I can help and I do promise that we will have fun.

The best day for occasional lessons is Sunday in Bureta. I can either teach you some moves that work well with any music or some that match the music you want to dance to.

If you are looking for dance lessons you have come to the right place. I am qualified in Ballroom (Waltz, Tango, Foxtrot, Quickstep and Viennese Waltz) Latin American (Rumba, Cha Cha, Samba, Jive, Paso Doble) New Vogue ( such as the Merrilyn, Gypsy Tap, Tangoette, Swing Waltz plus the rest of them including The Presidents Daughters Waltz) and Classical Sequence, which was Old Time (such as the Veleta, Mayfair quickstep, Saunter Reve, Tango Solair plus the rest of them) and I also qualified as a Ceroc/Modern Jive Teacher. I’ve choreographed theatre shows, many formation teams and performance show cases. I love teaching aerials and tricks and I have a passion for teaching adult beginners.

I also teach Wedding couples.

Kerry and Brian are heading home in a week to get married and show off their new skills to their friends and family.

Our wedding dance lessons with Elly were nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we met her, we knew we were in great hands. She was incredibly personable, making us feel comfortable and at ease. Her teaching style was clear, patient, and tailored to our abilities, which made learning so enjoyable. She worked with us to create a dance that was perfect for our special day, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Thanks to Elly, we felt confident and excited to perform. We highly recommend Elly to anyone looking for a fantastic dance instructor!

If you and your partner are interested in having some wedding dance lessons, do book them in advance – that means one less thing to worry about closer to the actual day.

And, if you want to learn some social partner dancing also give me a call or email.
