He has been choreographing our first dance for our wedding jut in addition, he has given my fiance the ability to choose what he wants to do next and feel confident in himself and in dancing. I just like to follow and beat to my own drum which, John has worked well with incorporating my funkiness into our dance style.

Details: Two (ex. me and my partner) • First dance • Parent dance (i.e., father/daughter) • Wedding party dance • What my teacher recommends • Slow Dance • Swing Dance • Foxtrot • Waltz • Hip Hop • Latin • No, I do not have choreography in mind • No song preference • Beginner • My home, venue, etc.

Dan is a great dance teacher! My fiancé and I used him to learn some steps for our first dance at our wedding. His lessons were incredibly helpful and he was very patient with us having no dance experience. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone!

Through time spent years ago learning ballroom, I came to know quite a few dance instructors, either personally or through their students who were acquaintances of mine. Either they sweet talk you into buying expensive packages (and then disappear), or convince you to spend a fortune to train and enter competitions...when maybe all you want to do is learn to dance socially and have FUN. John’s whole approach is, “if it’s not fun, why do it?” No drama, no hassles, no pressure! He’s more patient and supportive than any instructor I’ve ever known, and believe me, you will have fun while you’re learning!
