Learn the opening 16 counts. ### Week 2: Build Add the verse and the first partnering moment, a simple hold or turn. Practise ten minutes a day. ### Week 3: Polish Add the highlight, one memorable moment at the chorus. Clean up transitions and facing directions. ### Week 4: Run-throughs Dress rehearsal in outfit and footwear. Do the routine three times in a row. Film one run and watch it together. ## Entry vs Sangeet Set An **entry** is usually shorter (45–60 seconds), walks in rather than starts on the floor, and needs fewer steps. A **sangeet set** can run 60–90 seconds with a lift or showpiece. ## Cost Private sessions are **₹2,500 per hour**, the same rate at every studio. A couple's routine usually takes about four sessions of 1.5 hours, so plan for roughly that, adjusted to your song and comfort level.

It needs to **set the mood in the first ten seconds** and **give you a natural walking pace**. - Pick a song with a clear beat from the start. A long instrumental intro is hard to time. - Choose a tempo you can walk to comfortably, usually medium rather than fast. - Listen to the lyrics together. If you both smile at the chorus, you have the right song. - Cut the track early. A tight 60-second edit almost always looks better than the full song. ## Simple Moves That Look Good on Stage First-time couples do not need complicated partnering. These basics work well: - **Walk-and-hold:** walk in step, hands joined, with a pause at the centre. - **Side step with an arm shape:** easy to learn and reads clearly from the audience. - **Slow turn:** one partner turns under the joined hands. - **The freeze:** hold a pose at the chorus. It gives the photographers their shot. ## If One of You Is Nervous Common worry: *"my partner will not enjoy this."* A few things help: - Start with the simplest section and finish the first session with something you can already do. - Give the more confident partner the showier counts. - Practise in short bursts at home, not marathon sessions. - Make practice a date: music on, a few minutes, then tea. ## Outfit and Space Check An entry in heavy outfits is different from a studio rehearsal. In the last week: - Practise in your actual footwear. - Check the length of your lehenga, saree or sherwani for turns. - Walk the real entry path, including steps and stage edges, if the venue allows. ## Filming It If you plan to share the routine as a Reel, tell the person filming where to stand and keep the framing vertical for phones. We can give you camera placement notes. ## Planning With Twist N Turns Pick the event date and your song, then call us. We will fit the sessions around your schedule at the studio closest to you.

We recommend six to eight weeks when possible, but four focused weeks works for a simple routine. ### How much does it cost? Private sessions are ₹2,500 per hour. A 60–90 second couple's routine typically takes about four sessions of 1.5 hours, so the total depends on the hours you choose. Call 9831018015 for an estimate. ### What song should we choose for an entry? Choose something you both like and that has a clear beat in the first 15 seconds. Slower romantic songs are easier to learn; upbeat songs work for a fun entry. ### What if one of us is shy? The reluctant partner gets the simplest moves and a clear count. Most couples are comfortable by the second session. ### Can we rehearse at home between sessions? Yes, and it makes a big difference. Ten minutes a day is better than one long session. We can share a short practice video. ### Does the routine work for a Reel as well as the stage? Yes. We can choreograph the routine to read well on a phone screen and give you camera placement notes. ### Does this work for a reception or engagement? Yes. Tell us the event and audience when you call so we can shape the routine. ### How early do we need to book? Peak months (November to February) fill around four months ahead, so call as soon as your date is fixed: 9831018015.
