Make YOUR First Dance Last a Lifetime

Whether it’s your wedding or someone from your family, basic dance skills are necessary to enjoy the party fully and that’s when wedding dance lessons in Daytona will come in handy. Some basic Slow Dancing plus some Swing/Lindy or Hustle is easy enough to learn to be worth your time. Remember – you only need to learn once and all the parties are yours to have fun.

First Dance Routine

But if you only want to learn a First Dance routine to Your Favorite Song our teachers have great experience to prepare you and your fiancee for this glorious moment. Choose your music and let us do the rest. We can also help you choose the right song. We have plenty in our collection. We will tell you what dance you need to learn and we will put together a dance routine which will impress all your friends and family and most importantly, you will have something more to watch on the wedding video every year on the anniversary.

When To Start?

How much time it takes to learn some dancing for a wedding?
The more time you give us to teach you the better and more fancy the dance can be. But even if you have only a few weeks we will be able to accommodate you. We are open seven days a week from as early as 10:00am to 10:00pm. No matter how fancy or how simple your wedding dance routine will be, you do need as much practice time as you can get to feel comfortable dancing your first dance routine. We recommend a minimum of 5 hours to learn few basic steps that will get you moving around the floor.
You will be able to learn how to dance around the floor even within a couple of lessons, but it’s best if you give it more time to become more natural and comfortable. If you would like to be able to learn more dances and have only couple of weeks left you will need more lesson and practice time.

At Silva Dance besides all the dance steps that you will be learning for your first dance we will also teach you how to enter the floor looking natural and confident. You will need to practice your bows and curtsy. Then how to take proper dance position with your partner and how to lead and follow your partner.

Private Lessons Or Group Classes?

If you have at least a few months to your wedding we recommend starting at Silva Dance.
You will need to prepare your unique dance routine to your favorite music and will need to take some private lessons. You should take them as close to the wedding date as possible but remember to start taking private lessons at least several weeks before the wedding. Consider that you might get very busy during the last weeks before the wedding. It’s recommended to take your private lessons at least twice a week to memorize the steps to start.

What Dances should you learn?

Foxtrot – It’s the most popular slow dance and it’s relatively easy to learn. You can dance Foxtrot steps to almost any slow music. Most slow songs that couples choose for their first dance would be some version of Foxtrot.
Swing/Lindy – It’s one of the most popular fast dances. Especially if you will have a band playing the music you will enjoy it more if you will know some basic Swing steps.
Hustle – still the only dance that you can dance with a partner to any fast pop music.
Waltz and Tango – are optional for beginners. You can learn them if you start early enough to do more dances. The good news is that once you learn some basic Foxtrot it doesn’t take much to learn basic steps of Waltz and Tango. Those are all Ballroom dances with similar technique.
Salsa, Merengue & Bachata- are the most popular Latin dances. So if you plan to have a Latin band or D.J. playing Latin music at your wedding you should consider spending some time on learning some basics.

Short Courses

We have a special newcomer starter course of five private lessons. That is five hours one on one with the instructor at the time convenient for you (morning, afternoon and evening lessons are available seven days a week). We recommend taking them one or one and a half hours at the time – the choice is yours.
Gift Certificates
Gift certificates are available at our school for any amount of private lessons or group classes. It’s a good way to encourage especially the ones that think that they have two left feet.
