Private Lessons
Take your dancing to the next level with Private Lessons!
Planning a wedding? click on the "Wedding Planning" page for specialized instruction.
Private lessons make your goals an exciting reality. Whether you are preparing for the social dance floor, wedding, dance competition, performance or special event, you will achieve your goals quicker with one-on-one attention.
One private lesson gives the concentrated learning experience equal to four group lessons.
Dance style is your choice - choose from Ballroom, Latin, Swing, and Salsa and more, or a combination of dance styles. .
Private Lessons may be taken individually or shared by up to two people with no extra charge.
Especially for couples, if you are looking to dance with that one special partner you may not enjoy a group class that has you rotating partners and dancing with other people for the majority of the lesson.
Private Lessons will have you dancing with your partner and having fun in a much shorter time!
Group classes are not for everyone!
Group Classes usually have a set lesson plan. If you don't get it right away, they move on without you leaving you feeling discouraged and confused. Private lessons move at your learning pace and every lesson is individualized to ensure that YOU GET IT!
In a Private Lesson you will dance with your professional instructor and get the correct feel of the dance. In Group Classes you will dance with other beginners and sometimes get the wrong feeling!
Private dance lessons are, quite possibly, the most important step in becoming a proficient dancer.
Your instructor will provide you with the personalized attention you need and direct 100% of their attention to you.
Private dance lessons offer much more gain in a comparable period of time than any other type.
Private Lessons make the perfect gift! Our attractive Gift Certificates are perfect for any occasion. When you give the gift of dance you give a lifetime of pleasure on the dance floor! So treat your loved ones (or treat yourself -- you deserve it!) to the luxury of individualized learning with Private Lessons.
Michael Rye Dancesport can arrange a "Private GROUP Lesson" or series of lessons for your group in the dance(s) of your choice. Lessons may be held at our studio, and may also be arranged at your location. (Make your next corporate event, party or fundraiser memorable with a dance lesson in a popular style like Ballroom, Salsa, Tango, Swing !)
Private Lessons are scheduled at your convenience; a Standing Appointment (the same time every week) is recommended to help you progress optimally, and reserves your time with your instructor.
We can also be flexible for people with busy schedules.

Dear Michael:
"We can't thank you enough for helping us with our wedding day dance. Our friends and family were shocked that my new husband FINALLY learned how to dance. We got so many compliments thanks to you. I will highly recommend you to others. If you can teach my husband to dance, you can teach ANYONE! "
Debbie Tyson
"Michael immediately eliminated our "first dance" jitters. His bubbly personality, coupled with his expertise, made our dance lessons so much more than just learning the steps -- they were actually FUN! I would refer anyone and everyone to him for their lessons, and I will never forget the ease that we felt during our first dance on our wedding day. "
John and Judy Daker
