Course Details

The “first dance” at a wedding has proven to be one of the more anxiety producing aspects of getting married. We believe it doesn’t have to be that way. 

Sarah, who has seen hundreds of first dances during her time as a wedding caterer, has developed a program that can be as loose or structured as you want or need it to be. Your dance will be designed for YOU, specifically to your song, your attire, your location, and your personalities.

Any dance can look good, but we want you to feel good, too. It’s doesn’t take much (students are often shocked how little it takes) to make your first dance look graceful, or like you put some thought into it ;) Couples have often reported that taking lessons for their first dance ended up being the bright spot during wedding planning.

The respite from placing orders and sending invites…the time that they got to spend as a couple working on something together. The symbolism of that first dance isn’t just for ceremony…learning to dance together is part of the matrimonial experience that will last throughout your marriage.

Sarah has 18 years experience with cis gender, LGBTQ couples, parent-child dances, wedding party dance groups, flash mob, day-of dances for guests, kids, and any genre of music/dance you are interested in. 

Whether you are looking for basic lessons to get you ready for your special day, or you have specific choreographic needs, we can help!  Any music, any skill level, any time...email your time line, song choice, and desired outcome and we'll get it set up! 

*you must be vaccinated to take private lessons with any of our instructors.

  • Teacher's Experience
  • Sarah Riddle has been dancing, teaching, and performing Latin dances since 1997. Her lifelong training in Ballet, Contemporary, Modern, Cabaret, and Jazz, have deeply influenced her style of Latin dance, teaching, and choreography. A former member and co-director of Portland's first Salsa dance company, Sabor Latino, and one of Portland’s early Salsa pioneers, Sarah has studied, performed, choreographed, and taught all over the world. Her training in Caribbean based social dances is vast (LA style Salsa, Puerto Rican, Columbian, Casino, Afro-Cuban, NY Salsa on '2', Classic Mambo, Forro, Kizomba, Boogaloo, Plena, Bomba, and even Samba) making her approach to dancing and teaching not only well researched, but thorough. Sarah is a former PCC faculty member in the Humanities department teaching World Dance: History of Salsa, so if you have an interest in the history of Salsa, she loves to talk about it! That being said, her Salsa classes are taught on 1, and Cha Cha on 2, incorporating bits from all the other types of Latin dance out there, so that students are well informed of what they experience in the social scene, and in their travels! Don't know what on 1 or 2 means? Don't worry, she'll explain it in class ;) Her wedding prep and Partner 101 classes pull from her experience with other dances, such as Swing, Tango, Waltz, Zydeco, and NightClub 2-Step. She does not teach ballroom, or competitive dance. Her style of teaching is 100% client based. Sarah is able to articulate not just how the dance and music work, but why, and how to make it yours. Her classes are upbeat, fun, sometimes analytical, and full of dancing (not just demo). The material is dance-floor appropriate, meaning you can actually use it in a social setting. She applies a no-scold policy to all of her classes, so don't be afraid to make mistakes ;) She also spent 10 years as an early childhood educator, so you can be sure that she will cover all styles of learning in her approach to teaching, and with supernatural patience.
