Currently, Private Dance Lessons are taught by myself Teresa Martinez Hansberry within the following locations of Montana: Kalispell, Eureka, Libby, & the surrounding areas of Flathead and Lincoln Counties and Canada. I also give Private Dance Lessons in Puerto Rico around the southwestern area of the island: Mayaquez, Cabo Rojo, Ponce, & surrounding locations.
At this time, I am available for Private Dance Lessons in the Montana locations listed above only. We will post a notice as soon as these lessons become available in Puerto Rico again. Please send us an email if you would like to be notified personally.
For all other locations not listed, we recommend that you contact The Arthur Murray Dance Studios and Schools for more information regarding Private Dance Lessons in your area or country.
Again, all of the Private Dance Lessons that I teach require a partner (please the see list of Dances). However, I can substitute as your dance partner during Private Dance Lessons if needed (see male or female without partner lessons below).
Each Private Dance Lesson is 90 minutes in length, is for Social Dance Instruction, and is by appointment only. I can instruct you in the privacy of your own home or other location designated by you.
What to Expect During Your First Private Dance Lesson Besides Enjoyment:
During your first lesson you will be introduced to several basic components, which can be performed to various types of rhythms, tempos, and genres of music. These components are interchangeable to create patterns, which form the basis of any dance studied. The easy components include various styles of walking steps forward and back; side steps left and right; ball-changes forward, backward, and to the sides left and right. All components will be instructed, practiced, and incorporated into various patterns and amalgamations with and without music.
Next, various practice holds and dance holds will also be introduced. Since, it is the male whom is in charge of leading the female through the various dance patterns of a particular dance, it is important that he understand how to lead his partner without pushing or pulling her, as well as move in time to the music. Therefore, females shall learn to follow their partners lead, neither anticipating nor dominating the steps.
Depending upon individual progress and interest, it could take just a few weeks of lessons or several months before you feel proficient enough to dance without instruction. On average, most people need at least 10 to 20 lessons before they feel proficient and confident enough to dance on their own or out in public.
Furthermore, a lot of people continue to take dancing lessons for years because they want to learn better posture, timing, footwork, foot positions, maneuverability, control, style, balance, pattern groupings, rise and fall, cuban motion, etc., and simply because dancing is healthy for your spirit as well as a lot of fun.
Private Dance Lessons Include a detailed list of the step patterns you are learning and a music cd of specified songs for practicing at home.
