How Do I Pick My First Routine?

There are a few things you should consider when trying to pick your first routine to make sure you have a fun journey leading up to your performance!

One way, and possibly the most obvious, is to pick your favourite and most comfortable dance. If you’re a newer student and feel very comfortable with Foxtrot, go with that option. Your first routine should be fun and exciting – we can save the challenging dances for your later routines! Likewise, if you absolutely LOVE the Rumba, but you’re uncomfortable with it, choose that one to lift it to the level of your other dances. There’s no rule to picking your first routine as long as it’s an enjoyable experience.

If you’re unsure, you can always let your teacher pick one for you. Your Arthur Murray Crows Nest teachers know what dances would be spectacular for you for your first time out – trust them. They’re here to help and they’ll never steer you in the wrong direction.

All in all, your first routine is an exciting time for you in the Studio. It’s almost like a rite of passage. Throw caution to the wind and have fun! You might be nervous but you will find that it is so incredibly rewarding!
