Need dance lessons?

We tried dancing to our song last night...
Words can't describe how funny it was. We SUCK!! I love to dance, he doesn't. We're thinking we need lessons or a video or something... Have any of you taken lessons? Any Suggestions for instructors in Suffolk county?

Re: Need dance lessons?

This question has come up alot recently. Are you looking to have someone choreograph the dance or are you looking to learn different dances? Some posted on here that they had already taken lesson and recommended their studio. You should do a search. Also, in Sunday's newsday there was a listing for adult ed courses being given all over LI. It included dance classes at local schools and colleges. Let me know if that is the type of thing you are looking for and I'll give you more info. It's too much to list!

Yes, i'm looking for someone to choreograph our first dance AND show us a couple of other dances...

We don't make a very coordinated pair!
Any information you may have will be helpful-- THanks!!

I second Remember When.

We just got back from our lesson. Jen, we actually added another move, it's like a grapevine, and we did really well tonight. I am so excited. We just need to polish it and work on the form and the timing.

We did our intro last time as well as another turn..pretty simple...
Are you doing the whole dance yourself???

Re: Need dance lessons?

You mean not inviting everyone else up?

I think so. I mean we spent so much time and spent the $$ for lessons, I kinda want to do the whole song. KNow what I mean? But I am not 100% positive yet.

We have practice the walking onto the floor to the last move we learned to tonight. It takes over 2 minutes. I think the song is a little over 3 minutes. Kristen kept the CD tonight to work on the timing of everything for next week.

Are doing it by yourselves?

Re: Need dance lessons?

We were going to do it all by ourselves...I even insisted at the beginning...BUT we are about 1/2 through the song now and i am really nervous that adding more steps would lead to a mistake. So we might be doing only half..I haven't decided 100% yet...I guess i am going to wait and see how we do...We video taped it last time and it looks sooo cute. I was surprised!!!

MY DAD IS STARTING ON SAT!!!!!!

Me too!!!! Phil always say I mess up. I do go to fast sometimes.

But most of the time Kristen sides with me.

One time he bodyslamed me to make me step back and Kristen yelled at him.

It's hard not to want to lead. We do this one move, it kinda is like a dip thing and I try to come up to fast, but Phil holds me down. He has gotten better at leading.

No, I haven't tried dancing with the slip on, but that is a great idea. I was just thinking tonight about not being able to see my feet and how it might be tricky. Awesome idea!!! I guess I would wear a skirt of some sort over the slip. Hmmmm??? What are you doing?

Actually, those aren't the shoes I am going to wear that day. I am just practicing in them to get used to a heal. Beth (nnov04LIbride) got them for me for like $10.

I saw Jessica's (shea) shoes tonight. They are actually dancing shoes and look comfy. They are really light too. She is going to send me the link so I can order a pair.

Oh, my shoes are very dirty from Phil stepping on my feet. He stepped on me pretty hard tonight.

Re: Need dance lessons?

I eventually want to go too. Maybe I'll ask for the lessons as a Christman present....?

I know there is Arthur Murray in Bay Shore. Anyone know anything about them?

Re: Need dance lessons?

They just started going last week. Actually last week, you were there before Phil and I, then they came after Phil and I.

Sorry, about your shoes. I know what up mean, even if no one else notices, you notice.

So, are you going to try dancing in your slip?
