Jodi S. says, "I’ve had the privilege of dancing with Tonisha for over a year, and recently, I invited her to lead a dance therapy session for our healthcare staff as part of a wellness retreat. Though I initially struggled to find the right words to describe what was in store, it became clear afterward just how transformative the experience was. Tonisha brought an extraordinary energy and expertise to the session that truly resonated with everyone. My colleagues couldn’t stop raving about how unique, freeing, and fulfilling the afternoon was. It also gave us the opportunity to bond with one another on a completely different level through DANCE, which helped us form closer bonds and support as a team. In healthcare, where stress and emotional strain are constant, Tonisha has an incredible ability to help us reconnect with ourselves and release emotions in a way that words simply can’t. Her sessions offer a powerful form of healing, and we are already making plans to have her back on a regular basis. On a personal level, I feel very fortunate to continue my own individual lessons with her, and I know my team is eager to welcome her again at our next wellness retreat. We are all deeply grateful for this unique and impactful experience she provided to our staff!"See more

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

What do you wear to swing dance lessons?

Swing dance is an increasingly popular style of ballroom dance with a dress code that reflects its roots in the 1920s-1940s jazz era. Although many studios don’t require historically accurate costumes for their private dance lessons, many dancers want to dress the part. You can wear clothes that are comfortable to move — and sweat — in, such as T-shirts and loose skirts or khakis. Or for an appropriately vintage look, women often wear shirt dresses with a knee-length A-line or circle skirt that allows for plenty of swishy movement. Men usually opt for a button-down shirt and trousers. The most important part of a swing dance outfit is the shoes. Both men and women can opt for simple sneakers, like Keds, or leather dance shoes, such as saddle shoes. Until you have several dance lessons under your belt, stay away from heels.

How much do dance lessons cost?

Adults who want to learn to dance, whether to prepare for a wedding or to meet new people, often enjoy taking dance lessons from an experienced dance instructor. Instructors may offer classes one-on-one to individual students or couples, or to small groups. The national average cost for a dance instructor ranges from $30 to $50. Some studios offer a discounted introductory lessons or group lessons, as well as package deals that are more affordable than paying for individual lessons. Some dance instructors will travel to the student’s home, which usually costs more, while others hold small-group sessions in their studios. If you choose a small-group class, expect to pay less than for individual dance lessons.
