We took private lesson at Cooperative Partners (ads on this site under Wedding Services) and it was great. I highly recommend it.

How far in advance of the wedding did everyone start their lessons?

Re: Dancing Lessons

To answer you no I don't have an arthur murray close by me. I live in Holbrook and I think Bayside is a little too far for me to travel LOL

But that was a good question??????????
How soon do you start taking lessons???

Re: Dancing Lessons

I know that there is an Arthur Murray in Merrick on Merrick Road, just a little bit east of the Meadowbrook Pkwy. Don't know if its too far for you, but its a bit closer than Bayside. Check to see if they have a website. They would probably list their locations.

Re: Dancing Lessons

we were going to, but with FI having been out of work for a couple of weeks.... that put us on just a little more of a budget! if we come into some $$$ though - i will definitely try!!!!!!!!!!

we started taking lessons 4 months before the wedding...there was a break at some point and then we refreshed a week or two before

How did you get you FH to agrre to dance lessons, I am trying to convince mine, but he rally doesn't want to go, any suggestions?

Re: Dancing Lessons

We went to try out Fred Astaire and he actually enjoyed the 2 trial lessons, so now he doesn't mind...

Maybe ask him to give it a try?

I swear to almight - dance lessons were my Fh's idea

Re: Dancing Lessons

FH fought with me the whole way to our trial lesson - complaining, 'I don't understand why we have to do this, it's so stupid'....now while I'm cleaning or cooking he grabs me and starts dancing with me, it's really cute!
We've been going to Fred Astaire in Garden City.

Re: Dancing Lessons

Nope. We didn't take any dancing lessons but sometimes I wish we did. In fact we didn't really practice at all but our first dance went well with slight mistakes that nobody noticed, not even our video can one spot it. Honestly, we didn't have the time or money for dancing lessons. I used to go clubbing during my college days many moons ago so that helped a lot with the fast songs during the night. DH hates clubbing and never really did until after the wedding on a business trip in Florida of Disney's Pleasure Island. However, there are 'how to' instructional videos on dancing lessons if you want to learn but can't afford the lessons.

Good luck!

Re: Dancing Lessons

Does anyone know the prices at Arthur Murray in Bayside? Also, are they big classes or private classes? I know nothing about this!
