In addition to offering regular classes for children and adults, we also offer wedding choreography here at South Shore Dance Academy. Over the past year, I have had the privilege of working with a number of couples and have helped them create their first dance as newlyweds. I've choreographed traditional waltzes, incorporated the occasional foxtrot, and have even choreographed some high energy jazz inspired routines for couples to wow their guests with!
Here is what to expect if you decide to come to South Shore Dance Academy for wedding choreography:
I usually will ask the couple to let me know their music selection by the day before our scheduled appointment. Once I know what song we'll be working with, I begin creating the choreography. Typically, I will teach the couple a handful of traditional ballroom steps (usually waltz and/or foxtrot). Many couples have expressed some anxiety around memorizing an entire routine, so what I have found to be helpful is to repeat the same combination of steps throughout the dance. Once the choreography is complete and the couple has attended their lesson, I always email a copy of the choreography that they have learned. This seems to be especially helpful when couples are practicing at home.
