Fast easy dance moves for first dance

Jennifer, on August 6, 2021 at 9:17 AM Posted in Planning 0 9
My fiancé and I aren’t dancers. I have a song in mind for our first dance that we both love the idea of dancing to but we both have two left feet and we’re nervous we might look terrible doing a fast-ish song. What are some super basic fast dance moves that we could learn? Song we’re thinking about is Red Sweater! by The Aquabats.


Thank you!

    If you don't want a choreographed dance then the simplest thing you could do is just step touch and clap for a while and then "slow dance" but at a faster pace, if that makes sense. Or you could find a choreographer near you to give you some easy moves to do that flow together.

    We took a few dance lessons and the two that our instructors suggested were the Rumba and Swing (there are a few types of Swing). Rumba is a bit of a slower dance but the basic step is super simple and you can speed it up to the music. Swing might be better for a fast song but a little more complex. We are going to stick to the Rumba mostly and throw in a few special moves we learned in our classes like some turns and a little dip at the end. You can find lots of tutorials for both of those dance steps on Youtube!
