Please Start 12 weeks before the reception...

We schedule 3+ months forward...(March & April  & May 07)

I average 30 Hours Primetimes Pre-Booked up per week, Early birds

I can usually accommodate 4-6 weeks before your day...

Reservations are best 2-4 weeks in advance. 

Please don't procrastinate! Start  soon feel  more prepared,  less hurried.

All Reservations  must be paid for online or cash 1 week in advance...

Its best to have a standing regular weekly time.

I cannot afford to reserve time for you, to have a no-show.

If I reserve your time, I can't work somewhere else or for another couple,

I have to ask permission from the studio owners to use the space at a certain time.

They do us a favor, so be nice and stable. Don't flip-flop or I look flaky on your behalf.

Evenings are prime time- full for group classes. You need semi-privates.

Bookings are Tentative until Confirmed

You must call or email  to confirm your time/days,  touch base.... 

Please read the orientation policy,  I am flexible and will make time for you,

 Always Call me when you are on the way, with our estimate time of arrival.

Call me to Set up your Appointment times and Days &

            Confirm Before you Come Over

Prefer two nights before, and/or 2 hours before that day....& when in car.

so I know you remember..... I do not like cancellations.... reschedule, ok.

We may have to adjust tentative time...stuff comes up...

I wait 15 minutes if you're late,.... (newcomers) Be 5 min early.

  

*Remember to consider breaks like:  START EARLY,  12+ weeks before

Holidays, Travel, Work commitments, Dress Fittings, Family Visiting,  Bachelorette party,

* Reschedules under Hurricane Storm Warnings,

I try not to rehearse you the last week before your date, Family in town (too busy).

I do not usually accept  couples with less than one month (3weeks) to prep unless necessary.

If you call 8 weeks before, ok, then if you sign up 4-6 weeks before, We are rushed!!!! 

so I recommend to start 3 months before the Date... please don't wait!!!

at minimum Bi Weekly, 3-4 meetings minimum  should cover your routine sufficiently

plus general social dance skills.... you're welcome to take more after the honeymoon... 

Remember until I see your learning speed, I can't suggest how long you need...

my dance partner staff may be present on side of ballrooms.

 

Music Selection

*Bring Original CD + 4 copies of your songs on CD, 1 for me to keep,

Make backup copy for DJ/Band/MC.  (WITH THE TRACK# LABELED)

1 CD for each partner to listen in car.

I pods are cool, but you can't hear them in a room.

Laptop speakers do not play loud enough.

Pick a song that is Danceable, that moves you.

Choose a song with a clear ending, and defined verses and chorus.

www.itunes.com    www.limewire.com

I recommend "It had to be you" by Frank Sinatra, or Michael Bouble.

Songs are either Ballads(2/4), Foxtrots (4/4), Waltz (3/4 timing)

Country 2 step, Slow-dance, Rumbas, Cha-cha's, or another style.

Bring your compilations of other songs in reception (parents, Latin)

 

Space Planning

* I'll need to know  seating layout for alignment, ask Ms. Caterer...

What size and shape is the dance floor? 20x30 rectangle?

Are there 10 tables on 2 or 3 sides? Sweetheart Table?

Is there an entry double doors, an arch, a stairway?

Which walls are Backdrop focal points vs. non-photogenic?

Don't  face a buffet table or dj/band or dead wall space for turns, 

or auntie takes pic of back of your head, you block the view)

 

Progress: Your at home Practices

* You'll need to practice 30 minutes at least twice, with out me,

 hopefully, practice after your 1st lesson, & at the rehearsal dinner....

Some long distance couples have to squeeze in time together....

if you live nearby, practice the song weekly for 15 minutes,

Try dancing the routine to different songs for variety! Be musical.

Don't be lazy! Don't just giggle/ collapse, retain the steps, pause/flow,

use good posture....be disciplined. Think Ahead of the next step...

Use the Printout tool I GIVE YOU, chart your coarse. watch the DVD.

Smile have fun, stay committed to the dance routine. Don't give into doubt.

 

I hear similar comments a lot, like....

"We want an upbeat dance, not a boring circle sway."

 "My fiancé is a total beginner, needs a lot of help & extra time."

"We remembered most of our steps, except this one or two parts..."

"We want it 80% CHOREOGRAPHED and 20% wing play by ear."

Of coarse I'm here to help you!  Bring your questions up at lessons!

 

Proper Dance Attire: Casual Elegant

 Dress up for your lessons!  I have a camera phone!   Ballroom attire only.

* Ladies wear a long skirt similar to your dress shape

('cause men need to get comfy dancing into fluff), with leggings under ok

& Men Bring Jacket, (it's warmer, restrictive). Extra Shirt if u sweat.

please No pajama shorts, scrubs, old sweat pants or short mini skirts.....

jeans or cargo shorts ok if not too tight,

******Sports Bras Required for Ladies, no loose tops

Dress in layers, form-fitting, so I can see your posture, and over sweater if cool/for warm-up.

We film your dress rehearsal choreography for you.   Look neat on camera.

Proper Dance shoes:

 Bring Dressy Heels in a bag & wear Flat Sneakers or slippers (required)

 SANDALS can FALL OFF but are great too, no barefoot practices Bring socks

(your pretty feet need a break), ankle straps required for dress rehearsal

Ladies do not dance in heels while learning foundation. Flats necessary.

  

Goal Achieving:

* Most couples prefer to focus on one prioritized goal,

Master the reception routine first, before ....

say learning, Salsa for the bridal or engagement party.... 

Use visualization techniques. Keep Breathing.   Enjoy!

 

my dream couples take 20+ lessons in a year... and send me pictures....

and refer your friends!!!!!  Mail me a DVD of your wedding dance!!

Give me wakeup calls on Sunday lesson days.... :) K

* when reserving for the first time,

tell me the names of both of you, _____&______ ...

... and the big DATE  !  Location....

 I'm happy to meet you!!!!  You can bring your kids....your parents,

Ok to Bring your video and still cameras.

Chew gum before,  for good breath,  take it out on the dance floor. 

Do not look DOWN !!!! Look out!!!  Smile!

Say praise to your partner! Be Sweet to each other!

 

Our Mutual Service Commitment

Remember we always use good Etiquette in the Ballroom, Being Patient, and kind.

Keep in mind, I do offer this service because I love it, I'm excellent, & well trained.

 I want to help you feel adequate, and reach your potential.  I'm an advanced Patron, its my lifestyle, and I'll share my experience openly.  I'm sure you'll have a good time.

Most couples value my expertise, and are grateful.  

 Dance Class is supposed to be fun, and stress-free, yet it is effort.

Learning to dance well is an investment in yourselves and as a full partnership.

 

Economy & Standards

I earn very little profit yet for myself. We accept gratuity at the end of your total sessions.

Other  teachers & studios may charge $2,500 for less equivalent service, and paying such is fair.

 I invest a lot of my own time, money, energy, equipment, home office, coaching, to be the best at what I do in my career.  I have not yet even broke even. I'm in this for the long-haul, too.

In order to keep budget prices affordable for most... &  for us  to be able Keep Taking on your project...I have minimum requirements and expectations and service standards for you:,

 RESPECT, DISCIPLINE, COMMITMENT, OBEDIENCE, PATIENCE,

DIPLOMACY, TRUTH, LISTENING, TRUST, FAITH, PROTECTION, CREATIVITY....

we Respect the shared space.  we  Do NOT whine or Complain to the OWNERS about me or you...

or I may  not continue working with you, no refunds, and you may quit at any time, no obligation. 

THEY DO ME A PERSONAL FAVOR. a $15 RENTAL DOES NOT PAY THEIR OVERHEAD.

They do not need me for their business. I need them. I need you. I need my future lessons.

If you call me "unprofessional" etc in front of others, you mess it up for future students.

You are my temporary boss, I am the dance captain, the studio does not employ me,

I hire them for space.  I have a reputation to uphold.  I have an image to protect. A small Business to nurture and oversee its growth.

If you cause a scene, ask for special favors, or abuse their permission, we all loose.

I'm like a volunteer, an advancing lifetime student long term customer of theirs, so they don't charge me/us a full commercial rate of $75/hour.  We, Who needs to make a lasting good impression... be on your best behavior. I'm not perfect, I'm often 10 minutes behind schedule.

Show up if you rent the hour or pay for the rental at least if you cancel for any frivolous reason.

 I screen/filter  my students. I do not accept half commitments. Beginners are ok, I expect awkwardness, just be courteous at all times.

You are a reflection of me. I survive by teaching. I am not sloppy. I'm polished.

If you make me look bad, The studio owners may not allow my/our  company next season.

Only on rare special circumstances do I teach in residences.

The Studios are not liable or engaged in your business with me.

They don't need any headache, and we want to delight all the members of the ballroom.

Participation is recommended for individuals in good heath, advised by their doctors, and assumed own risk. I do not currently carry any general liability insurance for you.

 I go slow, and show proper injury prevention policies. I'm conservative and careful.

If you are dis-obedient to my advice for safe practices, I may discontinue service.

 

If you have a suggestion, write an email to me,  I'll answer within 7-14 days. or call, leave a message.  Mr. Dearold, my production assistant, may relay a message if I'm in class.

My phone is on 24/7. You are welcome to call me 24 hours!!!

I have unlimited minutes and free long distance.  I answer my phone in class if needed.

 

Thanks for choosing to do business with me, see you on the dance floor!!!!
