Wedding dance lessons. She was so patient with my dad and I. My dad is 73 years and he is not the best in understanding dance moves (even tho this was his Idea) 😂 3 lessons and he got it down all the way. Here us 2 pictures of us. 10/10 if I have any other events that need dance lessons I will forsure call Shannon.

Details: Two (ex. me and my partner) • Parent dance (i.e., father/daughter) • Slow Dance • No, I do not have choreography in mind • No experience • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

My fiancé and I took 2 dance lessons with Shannon for our wedding. She was wonderful, and helped us achieve our goals. We came literally 3 weeks before our wedding, and she was able to teach us the basics of a good dance which was all we wanted! We are so happy how our dance turned out and everyone loved it! Thank you Shannon, you're the best!

Details: Two (ex. me and my partner) • First dance • Waltz • No, I do not have choreography in mind • No experience • At the pro’s location

Shannon was the best first dance choreographer we could ask for! We were brand new to Thumbtack and dancing, and she made it super easy to schedule 5 lessons to learn the basics and spend the majority of the time perfecting moves to our chosen song. Shannon not only helped cut the music to fit our vision, but she always came prepared with multiple ideas to make sure we were comfortable and ready to shine on our big day! We absolutely love the dance she created and felt confident performing during our wedding! Showing off our new moves was definitely a highlight of the night, and we couldn't have done it without her services! To add something very special to your big day and have a blast in the weeks leading up to it, we highly recommend hiring Shannon to create a perfect custom dance!

Shannon helped craft a beautiful dance for my now wife and I as well as my mother and I. We really left things to the last minute, but Shannon ensured we were ready in 4 lessons for our two minute dance! She really went above and beyond to make out very tight schedule work so that we could get all our lessons in. She gave us a ton of confidence so we felt ready when we stepped out there. Super flexible with choreography and taking our suggestions, accommodating on time, professional and just a really sweet human being.

Details: 26-35 • Two people • Ballroom • No experience • Preparing for a wedding • 45 minutes • Once a week • My home, venue, etc.
