Introduction: I have ranked as a Top Thumbtack Pro continuously since 2017, and I received the award for Best of Thumbtack in 2015 & 2016! Please read my many 5-star reviews to hear from my satisfied clients. I am a dance artist, choreographer, performer, dance educator and dance fitness professional. I have an extensive professional background in many forms of dance, movement and fitness (ballet, modern and contemporary dance,hip hop, jazz dance, ballroom, swing dance, social partner dance, dance fitness, Zumba, yoga, pilates, children and senior dance, flash mobs and choreography). I've been teaching dance and fitness for over 2 decades. I trained at top level schools, as well as performed professionally as a dancer for 3 decades. I've been choreographing for groups, solos and duets for 2 decades. I have a huge passion and enthusiasm for dance, and I love sharing it with my students. I am available for private and group instruction in dance styles including swing dance, ballroom dance, ballet, hip hop, contemporary, jazz, dance fitness and line dancing. I can create exciting choreography tailored to your level (beginners through advanced) for individuals or groups. I create dances for weddings, having worked with over 130 couples on their first dances, as well as father/daughter, mother/son and for the wedding party. I have also created surprise dance flash mobs for various events, and over 75 works for professional dance companies, festivals and performance venues as well as training programs. I also provide professional dance entertainment tailored to your specific event, whether you need flappers performing a Charleston dance for your 1920's theme party, country western dancers doing the 2-step along with line dancing instruction for your barn dance, or 1940's style swing dancers doing the lindy-hop and jitterbug. Adding this kind of live entertainment to your event will make it exciting, engaging for guests and unforgettable!! I love to dance and to inspire the inner dancer that lives in every person. I am totally joyful when dancing, and it is my greatest pleasure to spark that joy in others. I also love seeing the positive transformation that occurs in my clients by working with me. Their confidence, energy and happiness soars. And couples find that their ability to connect and create intimacy and romance blossom by dancing together. It's AWESOME! Erin Parsley Dance + Steps to Love is an inclusive company, celebrating humans in all their expressions (no matter your gender identity, orientation, race, size or abilities) , and adores working with the LGBTQ+ community. I am passionate about sharing the gift of movement through my upbeat, encouraging and fun teaching style. I want you to have a total blast while learning to dance. YES, YOU CAN DANCE!!

Erin is a fabulous dance instructor! She helped me learn a lot of basic partner dance moves for some weddings I had this month. They went really well, and I plan to continue taking lessons!

Details: One • Wedding party dance • What my teacher recommends • No, I do not have choreography in mind • No song preference • No experience • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Erin played a special part in our wedding which made one of the most memorable moments of the entire day, our first dance! It was an absolute delight and a breeze working with Erin. She helped create a fully customized first dance that my wife and I were not only comfortable performing, but was fully tailored to our ability as dancers (which also grew through Erin's super-valuable lessons). Throughout the entire experience, we were always excited and eager for our next session - it NEVER felt like a chore and always felt like one step closer to building the PERFECT dance that embodied who we are individually, and collectively as a couple. Erin is an absolute pro and it was so fun working with her. She listened to every random idea we threw at her and provided insight to help us decide how our dance would be set up (I.e. based on the difficulty of the move, the space we had to dance, location, guest view, etc). I'd eagerly work with Erin again for any future dance needs and would HIGHLY recommend Erin to any couples seeking dance lessons for their special day or any special occasion (or just to have fun!) We're so grateful we found Erin - our first dance was a top highlight of our wedding and we absolutely could not have done it without her. Her help was invaluable and I cannot sing her praises highly enough. <3

My fiance and I had an amazing time working with Erin to choreograph our first dance.I was hesitant at first because I had never taken dance lessons before, but it's been one of the best decisions we've made for our wedding. We could not be happier with her. She was very attentive, enthusiastic, flexible and patient with us. I would definitely recommend her if you need help with a dance routine and want to feel more confident on a dance floor.
