Maya Moves - Wedding Dance Lessons

  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Crete, IL

Maya Moves was created for couples who want to feel confident on the dance floor without committing to multiple lessons. The private one-hour session begins by reviewing your wedding details and song. Your dance is kept short (about 1:30–2 minutes) so it feels natural and easy to remember. You’ll learn how to stand comfortably together and 3–4 signature moves (a dip, a spin, and moments that fit your song’s vibe). No traditional ballroom steps, just modern, natural movement that looks effortless. You record videos at the end to help when practicing. Maya Moves offers private wedding dance lessons in NYC and over Zoom.

Awarded Best of Zola
Maya Moves - Wedding Dance Lessons was a fantastic choice for our wedding dance lessons. From the start, Maya’s communication was clear, helpful, and warm, putting us at ease as complete dance newbies. Maya was incredibly patient, making it easy to learn the steps and helping us feel comfortable on the dance floor. She saved us from the dreaded middle school sway without stressing us out about memorizing complicated steps, the dance felt completely natural and looked like us. Maya also cut our song perfectly and gave it to us right after the lesson so we could practice to it at home. We couldn't have been happier with the quality of her work and the value she provided. Highly recommend Maya Moves for any couple looking to feel confident and have fun with their first dance without being overly choreographed!

For example, they suggested cost-saving centerpiece options that gave the same look as a high-end quote. We didn't even know we had a sick groomsman right before the ceremony, but the issues they handled behind the scenes meant we never even knew about it. Having them lead our rehearsal and practice made us feel so prepared, and their professional coordination allowed us to stay present and enjoy every moment, from the stunning decor setup to the end-of-night cleanup. We're so grateful to the Blue Oak Company for making our wedding day truly special.

Guests got updates, reminders, even their shuttle info, straight to their phones — no one was lost or confused. What’s more, Hrishi and Kevin were incredibly down to earth.
