about this tutorial
L-O-V-E by Nat King Cole is a fantastic first dance song choice for so many reasons! First things first — it’s short. For a lot of couples, two minutes and thirty-five seconds is plenty long to be on the dance floor with all eyes on you. Secondly, there are about a million covers of this song that you could apply this choreography to, so if you wanted something a little different (have you heard the multilingual version by Nat King Cole?) you have options. Lastly, this is a classic that has stood the test of time. You’ll never be tired of hearing this song, or singing it to your significant other when the mood strikes. When you enroll, you’ll learn all of the steps you see in the video above, including how to put it together to the music, so you can truly be in the moment!
can we really learn to dance online?
Yes, you can learn to dance for your wedding online and quickly, even if you've never danced a day in your life. Like learning a new language, learning to dance takes effort and consistency. You won't be able to just watch the videos and then magically be able to dance if you don't actually practice the steps. But I promise, this is still the easiest wedding dance tutorial that exists online. Some couples will find this online method of learning even easier than in-person lessons because you will see exactly how the steps are supposed to look before you even try them.
How long does the choreography take to learn?
The entire tutorial takes two to three hours to complete, including practice time between steps. If you have the time, I recommend focusing on one step per practice session. It will take you a little less than a week to complete if you break it apart into one or two sections per day. If you are a marathon learner or test-crammer, you might set aside several hours on the weekend to learn each step in the course before putting it together into choreography. You’ll still need to practice the dance leading up to your wedding to build muscle memory!
