We just decided to include dance choreography and time is tight. Can we still learn something?
Absolutely! Even with a limited schedule, you can still learn a beautiful, memorable routine. Basic steps are easy to pick up, and we’ll work with you to choose a style that suits your timeline and group. Whether it’s a father-daughter dance or a full court performance, we’ll create choreography that’s simple to learn and impressive to watch. With regular practice, you’ll feel confident and performance-ready!
How many lessons will we need?
It depends on a few key factors:
Some courts prefer more time to refine their routine, while others are ready after just a few lessons. Desiree can help you create a plan that fits your timeline and goals.
How often should we schedule lessons?
Consistency is key! Here’s a general guide:
Meeting once a week is ideal for the court to maintain momentum, reinforce material, and allow time for extra practice. To accommodate varying schedules and occasional absences, Desiree recommends that the court meets weekly on their own, and she will join every other rehearsal to introduce new choreography and provide focused instruction. This structure allows for steady progress while giving the group time to review and rehearse in between.
If you're closer to your event date, we may suggest more frequent lessons or extended sessions to help you feel ready in time.
When should we start preparing for the dances?
Ideally, start your choreography lessons at least 2–3 months before the event. This allows time to learn, refine, and feel confident—without rushing. However, she also work with tighter timelines and can adjust choreography to fit the time you have.
Can you choreograph the father-daughter or mother-son dances too?
Absolutely! These dances are a special way to honor family and add a personal, emotional moment to your celebration. Desiree will keep the choreography meaningful and easy to learn, so everyone feels comfortable and proud.
What if I feel confident dancing, but my court or family members don’t?
No problem! Desiree will customize choreography to match all comfort levels, so no one feels overwhelmed. The goal is for everyone to enjoy the process and feel proud of their performance. She will focus on creating a positive, low-pressure experience for everyone involved.
Do we need to bring our own music?
Many families already have a favorite song in mind—but if not, Desiree is happy to help! She can suggest songs that fit traditional waltzes, fun surprise dances, or modern mashups. Whether you’re imagining something elegant, lively, or themed, she’ll help you find the perfect track for your vision.
