Are you thinking about learning to dance? Then you have come to the perfect place. No matter the style you want to learn (Ballroom, Latin American, Street Latin, Swing, Rock and Roll or just your Wedding dance), we can teach you.
No partner needed and couples welcomed. We specialise in beginners so if you are at that stage you've come to the right place. Destine Dance teaches in alignment with the standards of the Australian Dancing Society (ADS) to ensure you learn authentic dance, and can dance with others anywhere in the world. But, always, we keep it fun. With Destine Dance you will get all you want from dance. COVID Update: We are only open now that contact indoor sports are allowed. If this changes, then we will close again. You can also choose to dance only with your partner if you wish. Or, if it suits, we can teach at your home as one of your daily visits. Contact us if you have more questions. Get to know us better. Check out our videos on Facebook. |

When students have been at the dance studio long enough and have acquired the skills needed, they can work on a routine with their instructor and then perform this for a showcase. These showcases are professionally recorded and edited to make the final video do justice to your dance ability. We also bring in professional makeup artists so you look as as good as possible for the video. Take a look at the playlist of videos below to see what others have done and what you too can do.

The details
One of the most highly ranked dance studios in Melbourne
Take a look at our reviews online to see how we have a higher ranking than other studios in Melbourne. This is all a result of our teachers, the diverse styles we teach, the focus on authentic dance and the fun lessons we provide for all levels. If you want to learn to dance, dance well and have fun, then Destine Dance is the place for you. Read on to learn more about us and why we are ideal for you.
All levels are taught
If you choose to take the private dance lesson, then all lessons are tailored to your needs. If you choose to take group dance lessons, then we have lessons ranging from absolute beginner to advanced. No matter your level, we can teach you what you need to know so you have fun and improve quickly. Take a look at our Google reviews to see how many people have had a great experience with us.
The style you want
We teach a greater range of styles than other studios in Melbourne:
Ballroom: waltz, foxtrot, quickstep, tango (international/English)
Latin American: cha cha, rumba, Jive, samba
Street Latin: salsa, merengue, tango (Argentine), kizomba, bachata
Swing: Lindy Hop, Rock and Roll, Blues, West Coast Swing - note, we teach authentic dance and do not teach the manufactured 'swing' that you will find at other dance studios
Authentic dance...
We focus on teaching dance in a way that is authentic. That's why we teach both types of tango: the original Argentine and the international standard. We have had students who have had lessons before travelling to Argentina and been told that they are some of only a few who have learned 'proper' tango beforehand. It's also why we teach a number of swing dances as opposed to the culturally insensitive and bastardised "swing" you will see at other dance studios. We ensure authenticity by aligning with the Australian Dancing society, liaising with traditional dance societies like the Harlem Lindy Hop Dancing Society and interviewing traditional dancers in our Facebook live Dance Talk video series - see an example here.
....and fun lessons
We know you are looking for something fun. You might also be looking for a challenge and some exercise, but you still want to enjoy yourself. That's why we always focus on making sure you learn to dance (no matter your level) and get to enjoy the experience. Our teachers all love dance and want to share that love with you. It's this focus on loving dance, as opposed to drilling nothing but technique, that makes our lessons fun.
Excellent location
We are located at the Elsternwick Park Sports Club in Brighton. Close to bus train and tram. And we have plenty of parking on site. Easy to get to from the city, Richmond, Bentleigh, Chadstone, St Kilda and all over Melbourne.
More than just lessons
Destine Dance is more than just a place of lessons. We are part of the community and a community as well. As a group we regularly attend live music events at the Wickers so that you can socialise with others and use what you learn to dance socially as well. We also run regular online Facebook live events to share more knowledge about dance to our students and others. Even when you are not dancing with us, you can still learn from us and be part of the community. Finally, we know that you have your own dance goals. If you want to dance ongoing with us as a hobby or to steadily work up the levels of dance, then we are here for you. If you want to specialise in one dance so you can then join the respective social dance scene, then we are here to help you make that transition - and we wish you all the best as your journey takes you to somewhere else. It is all about you becoming the dancer you want to be and us helping you do that.
Some of the best wedding dance lessons in Melbourne
Unlike other dance studios, every wedding dance we teach is customised to you and your song. Some other studios have about 3 different routines and they force one of these upon you. Not us. If you look at our reviews, then you will see the many satisfied wedding couples we have helped. Even if you do not get your wedding dance here, ask the studio you do use if they customise the dance to you.
Contact us about a risk free first lesson
If you want to find out more about how you can try us out risk free lesson, then you can call us (0387749614) or email (info@destinedance.com.au). We are keen to get you dancing so we are happy to answer all your questions.
