The Perfect Valentine’s Gift…Dance!

salsa dancing in ArizonaEach year you search and search for that perfect, original gift for your sweetie that he or she will treasure forever, right? You dig deep and come up with creative ventures like couples horseback riding lessons or cooking classes for two, both fun and different ideas! This year, we recommend the gift that keeps on giving for years to come…Couples Dance Lessons!

With dance lessons as a couple, you can learn cool and useful dances like the Country Two Step and Swing, the Salsa, or even the sultry Argentine Tango. All of these popular dances will give you romantic “date nights”  for years to follow, not to mention a fun hobby that will be put into practice at weddings, on vacations and even at your favorite local bar! Social ballroom dancing is a forever present, unlike chocolates and that teddy bear that always seems to collect dust on the set of drawers in the corner of your bedroom.

So now that you know you want to give the gift of dance to your love this February 14, what is the next step? First, you should decide whether or not you want to invest in private dance lessons or group dance classes. The difference is significant, so let me elaborate. With private dance lessons, you should receive personalized instruction that is fitted to the way you learn best. So, if you are a visual learner, your instructor can show you how to do your moves to help make them stick. If you are an auditory learner, we can customize your lesson with specific examples that make sense to you.

Private dance lessons can also be scheduled at various times of the day, where group dance classes are usually at pre-set times that work for the masses. With more flexibility, you can make learning to dance fit into your lifestyle with ease.

Our recommendation is always to begin with private dance lessons so that you can develop healthy habits from one-on-one instruction, rather than overall instruction that may not cater to the way you learn. Private dance lessons are a bit more of an overall financial commitment, but you will get to your goal of becoming a confident social dancer so much sooner. That means that you get to use your dancing and have more fun even earlier! That’s never a bad thing! 🙂

Next, you want to look for a dance studio that meets your needs for what you want to accomplish. Would you like to look like the dancers on “Dancing With The Stars” or do you want to shine on a social dance floor? If social dancing is your thing, make sure to check with your local ballroom studio to see if they offer a social dance program so that you can be comfortable at that next holiday party, not on a competition dance floor.

Finally, find out about an Introductory Offer for beginner dancers. It is key that you find a studio that you are comfortable in, so a newcomer’s offer will give you a chance to see what you like, which will better aid you in your learning process.

Social ballroom dancing is an exciting and romantic hobby that he or she is sure to appreciate. You get to hold each other close and take a journey into developing a skill that is beneficial physically as well. If you happen to live in Phoenix, Arizona and you want to be a confident social dancer, let us show you the time of your life with private and group dance lessons at Dance FX Studios in the Phoenix East Valley. Our New Student Offer is the ideal gift for your loved one this Valentine’s Day. Come by and pick up a gift card or get a gift certificate in our Online Store and set up a lesson soon after the holiday. We look forward to seeing you on the dance floor!

Dancing is a great hobby to have because of its countless benefits. Treat any mother to the gift of dancing and she will experience them in no time! Dancing is a great form of exercise and stress relief. It gets you up and moving and helps you to focus on something positive and self-focused. The outlet of expression that dance lessons provides allows for anyone to express emotions and become more in tune with their body and feelings.
