Your first dance, done right.
WEDDING DANCE LESSONS | BROOKLYN
Wedding dance lessons in Brooklyn for couples who want to feel confident, connected, and completely themselves on the dance floor.
Your first dance is one of the only moments on your wedding day where everything else stops. No timeline, no vendor questions, no one pulling you in a different direction. Just the two of you, in front of everyone you love, moving together.
We help couples make that moment feel like themselves. Confident without being stiff. Prepared without feeling rehearsed. And a lot more enjoyable to get ready for than most couples expect going in.
ESTIA offers wedding dance lessons in Brooklyn with experienced instructors who specialize in creating choreography for couples at every comfort level, from complete beginners to dancers who just need help pulling something together for the big day.
A pace built around your wedding not a template.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Choreography created for you
Every couple gets something made specifically for them. Your song, your style, your comfort level. The first session covers about 50 percent of the choreography, so you leave feeling like you have something to work with from day one.
A pace that works for your timeline
We recommend starting two to three months before your wedding date. This gives you time to practice between sessions, get comfortable with the movement, and add sessions closer to the date if you want to. Most couples book four to five lessons in total, though we can create something you feel proud of in fewer sessions if you are working with a specific timeline.
Book one session at a time
Sessions are booked individually at $170 per hour. No packages, no long term commitments. Start with one lesson and go from there.
Patience, warmth, and a genuine love of working with couples

What couples say …
Lydia was such a pleasure to work with!! My fiancée and I are getting married this weekend, and within just a couple of sessions Lydia created the perfect choreography for our song choice. She was able to accommodate for any change we wanted, and incorporated everything we were looking for. We feel so confident for our first dance coming up, and can't wait to show it off.
Coming into this, I felt nervous because I have no dance experience. Lydia made me feel comfortable right away and ramped us up in a way that didn't feel overwhelming. I couldn't imagine ending up with a full dance that looked and felt this good just a couple of weeks ago before starting our private sessions with Lydia.
If you are looking for someone who can help you have the first dance of your dreams, you should definitely work with Lydia!!

It’s rare to find a place that blends top-quality instruction with such a warm community feel. Highly recommend checking it out!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Everything you’re wondering before you book.
-
Most couples book 4-5 sessions. That said, we can work within your timeline and budget. A beautiful first dance does not require a specific number of lessons. We will guide you based on what you want to achieve.
-
We recommend starting 2-3 months before your wedding date. This gives you enough time to practice between sessions and leaves room for any last minute additions closer to the day.
-
Every couple is different, so we build each first dance around your song, your vision, and your comfort level. Whether you're imagining something romantic and contemporary, full of dips and spins, or simply natural and personal, we'll create choreography that feels like you.
Some couples prefer fully choreographed routines, while others want a few movement ideas that allow them to be more spontaneous in the moment. We'll tailor the experience to your goals and what feels most authentic.
Our choreography draws from a variety of dance styles based on your music, wedding aesthetic, and personalities. If you already have a specific style in mind, we'd love to hear about it in your interest form.
-
Yes. If you have a specific vision for your edit, we recommend bringing a pre-edited version to your first session. For simpler edits, we are happy to help as the choreography develops.
-
We do not offer a separate intro lesson because we begin developing choreography from the very first session. You are welcome to book a single lesson to get started and continue from there.
