First Dance took our favorite song and gave us a routine that felt natural and comfortable, with a little razzle dazzle that we would never have come up with on our own. We're so glad we did this.

About First Dance
Long Island
My name is Eileen and I have been teaching Ballroom and Latin dance since 2010. I absolutely love what I do! I began teaching dance to elementary school children during the school day, so I have lots of patience. I pride myself on being able to teach anyone to dance in a short amount of time, all while making it fun and stress free.
If you want to celebrate your special occasion with dance moves that look natural and feel wonderful, you've come to the right place. All lessons are taught in Long Beach, NY.
