Private Lessons
“What is the key to learning to dance well? The only formula I’ve seen work is a balance of three elements:
- Group Lessons
- Practice
- Private Coaching Sessions to focus on the individual”

Questions
I am interested in purchasing a series of private lessons. Is the full balance due at the contract signing or can the larger amounts ($750 and up) be paid in installments?
First, we do not have contracts, so you’re not committing to anything for longer than you choose to enjoy our Dance Family. Second, some of our students take one lesson before making a decision on a package (see details below).
Those wanting to take larger amounts of private lessons enjoy the benefits of the free group classes and a discount for paying in full in advance. Therefore, we do not offer installments. Of course, all students are welcome to pay as they go ($80 per lesson*), but this would not include the discount nor the free group lessons.
Students on a budget can keep in mind that all private lessons are the same price for a single or a couple. By attending with a partner the cost can be shared.
With the set of 10 lessons, what additional lessons, events etc. are included?
For the “10 pack” we offer either two 6-punchcards or 1 Unlimited Pass. The Pass option would include all practice dances. The value of either choice is over $139.
Of course, the package also comes with a discount making the lessons only $75 each. The $750* “10 pack” is our most popular private lesson package.
Is there a different set or amount of extras included in the series of 20 private lessons?
Yes, for the “20 pack” is discounted to $70* per lesson and we offer 2 Unlimited Passes. The Pass option would include all practice dances. This is a $278 value.
Do you offer a sampler with the instructor before we commit to a full series?
If a student purchased a “10 pack” and would like to use all 10 lessons to try 10 different instructors, that’s fine with us. It is the student’s choice. Some instructors have more limited schedules, so all instructors may not be available at the time slot a student requests. Private Lessons are based on the availability of each individual instructor. *
Do I need to decide what package I would like before I start my lessons?
We offer the opportunity for students to take one lesson, pay $80* and take the time to decide what package fits their needs and budget. Then, when coming in for the second lesson, we subtract the first $80 payment from whatever package is chosen.
