Why Introverts Thrive in Ballroom Dance:  The Surprising Benefits Introverted people often find ballroom dance classes to be a perfect fit for several reasons, despite the common assumption that dancing requires extroversion or being the center of attention.

  ✨ What You Need for Your First Wedding Dance Lesson ✨ Your first wedding dance lesson is a sweet milestone on your way to “I do.” Here’s everything you need to make it easy, fun, and stress-free: 💍  1. Your First Dance Starts Together Start with your favorite person by your side - your fiancé(e)! Expect to laugh a lot - messing up is half the fun and part of the learning. Think of it as a date night that helps you feel even more connected before your big day. 👟 2. Comfortable Shoes Brides: Wear shoes similar to what you’ll dance in on your wedding day. If you have your wedding shoes already, bring them to practice - or start with a pair that’s the same heel height. Grooms: Wear shoes that are similar to your dress shoes. If you plan to wear leather soles, avoid sneakers for practice so you get used to how it feels to move in them.
