Express Your Cultural Background Through Your First Dance

At a wedding there are two people who matter the most and on that day it’s all about making their dreams come true. In our modern culture, weddings have taken a new form but many couples still want traditional elements that express who they are. If you are looking for a way to incorporate traditional customs into your wedding, start with your first dance. At Valeo Dance Fitness we love to infuse your styles and backgrounds into our custom lessons and choreography.

Telling Your Story

Dance is a universal language that allows us to connect. Cultural fusion in dance can be about learning something new or expressing something about yourself. When you open the door to exploring your background further, you open up to more ways of expression. For wedding dances, it can allow you to share something important about you as a couple - your personality, the experiences you've had, the places you've been, or what you aspire to in the future.

Getting Creative

The possibilities for creative expression are endless when you integrate and combine different styles. Taking a bit of inspiration from both the groom and the bride's background can add just the right amount of flair to what might otherwise be another traditional dance routine. But, as we flex our creative muscles, we always remain respectful and culturally sensitive with all of our choreographic choices.

We recently choreographed a Bollywood-style number for our client, Rashmi and Pai, whose wedding dance was an absolute hit. Here is what they had to say on The Knot:

"Our guests were completely floored. So much so that they expect us to dance at every future function from now on. A relative of mine was so impressed with our dance that he said he wants to get married again just to be able to learn and perform a similar routine with his wife!"

At Valeo Dance, we're excited to put together the perfect dance routine for you to express yourselves, not matter your background. Latin, Bollywood, Persian, Asian - we explore it all! Contact us to embark on your own path of expression on your big day.
