What is the difference between a wedding dance specialist and a general ballroom dance teacher?
Your goals. One of the problems with selecting a standard dance studio or instructor is that they view wedding couples as “lost leads.” This is because the wedding couple has a short term goal – – the wedding, which does not usually lead them to take very many lessons. Keep these facts in mind when you call or go into a studio: 1) “FREE” lessons: you get what you pay for! Most “free lessons” at dance studios are a means to get you through the door. Much of the lesson is spent convincing you of the benefits of dance as a lifetime hobby and reviewing lengthy and expensive packages for after your wedding. The free lesson’s emphasis is not actually on learning to dance but rather on selling you more lessons. It costs a dance studio thousands of dollars to create a dance instructor and promote their business. Therefore, studios do not give away QUALITY private lessons for free.
