Wedding dance lessons in Singapore

Life At Snow teaches private wedding dance lessons for couples at The Adelphi, by City Hall MRT. The lessons start from zero if neither of you has danced, and the choreography is built around your song and what you’re comfortable with. Before the day, you have a dress rehearsal in the gown and shoes you’ll wear. Lessons for the two of you are $200/hr with a junior teacher.

Your first dance

What kind of first dance do you want?

Pick the one that sounds like you. Not sure? Send us your song and we’ll suggest one.

Slow and romantic

Good if neither of you has danced before.

Holding each other, a few simple steps, a turn and a dip at the end, if you want one. Quiet, close and easy to remember.

Choreographed to your song

Good if you want the room to watch.

A routine built for you, count by count, to the song you walk out to. It looks rehearsed because it is.

The surprise switch

Good if you want your guests on their feet.

It starts slow, then the music cuts to something upbeat and you both break into a routine. We edit the music for you.

With your bridal party

Each extra dancer is +$30/hr.

Bridesmaids, groomsmen or family join in for part of it. They learn alongside you in the same lessons.

The lessons

What you’ll learn in wedding dance lessons

The things that make a first dance look easy, taught from zero.

  • How to hold each other. Where your hands go and how to stand, so you look relaxed in the photos rather than stiff.
  • Leading and following. One of you guides, the other follows, so nobody is counting out loud on the day.
  • Turns and a dip. Only what you’re both comfortable with. If something doesn’t feel right, it comes out.
  • Dancing in the dress. The train, the heels, where to hold the skirt. You practise it in the gown before the day.
  • Your entrance and your ending. How to walk on, and the last pose that the photographer is waiting for.
  • Staying on the music. The cues in your song, so you know where you are. We can cut the song shorter if it’s long.

Before the day

How your wedding dance comes together

  1. Your first lessonBring your song and your date. We see what you’ve danced before and try the basics, so the plan fits you.
  2. Your choreographyBuilt over the next lessons to your music, your personalities and what you’re comfortable with. Film each lesson on the studio’s phone tripod and practise at home.
  3. Music editingIf you want it: your song cut to length, or mixed with a second song for the surprise switch.
  4. Dress rehearsalYou dance it in the gown and the shoes you’ll wear, so nothing surprises you on the day.
  5. A last run-throughA wedding-day practice or a last-minute confidence session, close to the date.

A real couple

Patrine and Jon learned their wedding dance here

From their very first lesson to their wedding day rehearsal, we worked closely with them on choreography that reflected their personalities and suited their comfort level.

Personal coaching, dress rehearsals and event-day preparation meant they could enjoy their first dance with confidence.

“We had so much fun learning our wedding dance at Snow! The team was patient, encouraging and made us feel comfortable. On our big day, everything flowed perfectly — it was even better than we dreamed.”

Before your first lesson

Wedding dance lesson questions.

We’ve never danced. Can we still do this?

Yes. The lessons start from zero, and the dance is built around what you can do comfortably, not the other way round.

How many lessons will we need?

It depends on the dance you pick and how much you’ve danced before. Tell us your date and your song, and we’ll suggest a plan after the first lesson. Packages of 4, 10 and 20 hours are 20% off during the first two weeks of each month.

When should we start?

As early as you can. Send us your wedding date and we’ll plan the lessons back from it, with the dress rehearsal close to the day.

Can we use our own song?

Yes, any song. We can cut it to length, or mix it with a second song if you want the surprise switch.

Can I practise in my wedding dress?

Yes, that’s the dress rehearsal: you dance it in the gown and the shoes you’ll wear on the day.

Can our bridal party or parents join?

Yes. Each extra dancer is +$30/hr with a junior teacher, or +$100/hr with a senior teacher.

Can just one of us come?

Yes. A lesson for one is $180/hr with a junior teacher, and a new student’s first hour is $120.

What’s the difference between a junior and a senior teacher?

It goes by style. A teacher is priced at the senior rate for the styles they’ve mastered, and at the junior rate for the others. When we match you with a teacher, we tell you which rate applies.

Where are the lessons?

1 Coleman Street, The Adelphi #02-47. City Hall MRT Exit B, through the Funan underpass, then the escalator to Level 2.

Do you choreograph the dance for us?

Yes. The teacher builds the choreography over your lessons, to your song, your personalities and what you’re comfortable with. If you want the surprise switch, we edit the music too.
