This section will take you approximately 15-25 minutes to complete.

This is a completely optional section. I don't typically teach parents dips, but if you are using this tutorial to learn tips for future dancing, or for the first dance as well, you may want to bookmark this part to come back to later.

But again, if you aren't interested in dips, just skip this whole section.

A NOTE OF ENCOURAGEMENT

I have taught more than 1,000 couples how to dance for their wedding in person and online and no one has ever fallen or been dropped during their first dance. If you are concerned about doing a dip and you don't have enough time to practice it, just skip it! You can always kiss at the end of your dance for a beautiful ending. If you do have time to practice a dip, throw some pillows or blankets on the floor, make sure there are no sharp edges nearby, and practice, practice, practice until you feel secure. You can do it!
