Private Dance Coaching at the Chevy
Chase Ballroom
plus teaching for corporate and special social
events and classes away from the studio.
Private Dance Coaching...
Private coaching is a great way to supplement
your classes by being able to fine-tune some of the ideas, foot patterns
and technique learned in the group environment. Some students schedule
private coaching on a weekly basis, especially when looking at future
amateur or pro/am competition or who just feel they want to progress faster
than class-work alone will allow. Others schedule private coaching at
unplanned intervals, whenever questions or technique concerns come up
which are more detailed than the class environmaent may cover.
Private coaching is also a great way to
completely choreograph and fine-tune upcoming performances, such as the
"Honor Dance" at your wedding or for
planned exhibitions during future dance-related events. Either way, private
coaching is a terrific means of speeding up the improvement of your dancing
over time. Terry's fee for private coaching is $75.00 per hour or $45.00
per 45-minute session if a full hour isn't available due to scheduling
conflicts Both of these quotes are highly competitive for one of the very
few in this industry with dancing experience since 1969 and teaching experience
since 1974 in literally every popular social dance available to mankind.
The amount remains the same whether one or two people participate and
for more than two people, the fee increases by $10.00 per person per session
over two.
**********************************
Instruction for private off-site
parties and classes,
including teaching at anniversaries, weddings,
birthdays, corporate parties and other special events.
Special instruction is also available for
teaching at wedding or Bar/Bat Mitzvah receptions,
anniversaries, birthdays, quinceanera's, schools
and other social & corporate special events as a great way to get
all of your guests and those present who are normally hesitant about their
dancing out onto the dance floor.
Though more costly per hour for the teacher's time due to travel away
from the studio, as well as the fact that such events are often held during
a teacher's "Prime Time" on the weekends or during private coaching
hours at the studio, this can be a way to insure that your event is one
of the most enjoyable evenings possible by everyone attending.
We will not only teach a mini-class in either one or several dances requested
by the hosts, but our goal is always to get people up and dancing and
switching partners and really enjoying this special event where many would
normally just sit and watch. Our experience is extensive in this process
and we assure you that it's a great way to ensure that the special evening
will be long remembered by everyone who attends.
If there's time during the event, we also love to conduct "So
You Think You
Can Dance
DC",
"Dancing with
the DC Stars"
and "Dancing
With The AC/DC
Stars"
(competing couples must be of the same gender)
mini-dance competitions, which are open to everyone.
Winners are chosen by audience applause,
so encourage everyone to invite their loudest and most obnoxious friends
and family members to cheer for them! We
will fit in as many contests as possible in as many different dances as
we can within the time available.
Costs for such productions include $95.00 per teacher/assistant
provided per hour plus the same for estimated travel time for each both
to and from the Chevy Chase Ballroom to the event. Possible discounts
are available for repeat or extra long events.
The higher rates and cost of travel time for events away from the studio
are a result of the increased difficulty of pre-planning and moving all
necessary items to and from the location, plus the cost of travel time
during which teachers could normally be teaching back-to-back privates
or classes at the studio. Also significant is the fact
that often such events are held during a teacher's weekend and evening
"Prime Time" when they, themselves are highly sought after for
teaching privates or at other such events or have opportunities to unwind
socially after a long week of being in the studio.
We have had a lot of past experience and success with
all of these types of events in the past and if Terry isn't available
himself for such an occasion, we definitely have other highly qualified
teachers who are. Though higher than the normal session rate at the studio,
the cost per person is a fraction of the normal studio rate for one individual
or couple and can be one of the best means available to guarantee the
ultimate in your party or event's success at a very minimal cost per person.
We guarantee nothing but
results for your special event.
Whether
it's from watching
"America's Ballroom Challenge"
on PBS,
"So
you Think You Can Dance"
on FOX,
"Dancing
with the Stars"
on ABC,
or just watching the recent
"Allignment-of-the-stars"
within our solar
system,
Washington DC
is definitely becoming a city of
BALLROOM, LATIN, TANGO & SWING DANCING...
And it's time to "STOP
WATCHING" all the fun....and "START
HAVING IT"?!!
