Learning the Choreography

Now, let’s put all of the steps you’ve learned together into this lovely routine! To learn the routine, we suggest you learn it in sections. Practice each section without music first and then with music. Also, watch the demo video and use the written instruction listed below for musical cues. Have fun!

If you need additional help with your dancing, feel free to schedule a virtual livestream lesson with us. And if you’d like to make changes to the dance or spice it up more, you can hire us to choreograph something special for you. Get started here.

**Important Note: We’ve edited the music to make the choreography more suitable for weddings. Please use our demo video on YouTube (https://youtu.be/3qCfq157Izk) to practice and send it to your DJ to play at your wedding!
