OUR STORY Like all good stories, let's start at the beginning.
Hi, I'm Renée - the founder of Wedding Dance Designers and I will be your teacher throughout your wedding dance journey. That handsome guy dancing with me is my hubby Dave who by the way is NOT a dancer but was lovely enough to let me use him as my assistant to help show you how easy learning a wedding dance is and why we have created this platform especially for beginners.
I grew up on a farm in South East Queensland, am the proud mum of four gorgeous little kiddies and I have spent a lifetime loving and exploring many styles of dance. I have taught for several different dance companies and even ran my own for many years. I have taught countless couples a dance for their wedding and I absolutely love being a part of your journey and helping you make beautiful memories.
As an in-studio dance instructor I was noticing a few things were happening...
- Because of the style of music typically chosen, the majority of wedding couples were learning the same dance - The Box Rumba.
- Similar step patterns are used for most couples just in a slightly different order with their music.
- A large amount of the private lessons involves a lot of repeating and practicing.
- Unfortunately, private dance lessons are very expensive and therefore not accessible to everyone looking for a solution for their wedding dance.
- Most couples just want a few moves to get them through comfortably without standing there rocking back and forth.
- Add this to the fact that many couples would prefer the flexibility and privacy of learning in their own home as well as the ability to re-watch their lessons.
And so the idea for Wedding Dance Designers was created.
Professional tuition created specifically for beginner dancers who just want a few moves, a twirl for her a dip to finish for their wedding dance. I understand that you are not looking to be ballroom dancers and you are not interested in looking stiff and over the top. I have designed Wedding Dance Designers with you in mind and I am very excited to be able to offer this solution for you.
Learn where you like, when you like and re-watch as many times as you need. I have included everything you need to know for your dance - from dress styles and dance floor size, to practice lessons to follow along with. All to get you looking great fast. Each lesson only takes a couple of minutes to watch and then learn and the choreography is building as you go making it even easier.
Wedding dances are meant to be easy and fun, and learning a dance together is an amazing opportunity to enhance your relationship and add a bit of romance and quality time in the lead up to the big day. I hope you enjoy and I can't wait to see your dance!
