Sherry is the best! We worked with her on our first dance for our wedding and we got so many comments about how perfect our dance was!
We didn't want anything too choreographed and Sherry gave us the perfect routine that was easy to learn and fun to do. If you're looking for an instructor, definitely hire Sherry!
Details: Two (e.g., myself and my husband) • First dance • What my teacher recommends • Slow Dance • No experience • As recommended by professional • 45 minutes • Thursday • Saturday • Friday • Sunday • Evening (after 6pm) • I travel to the wedding dance instructor

I was excited to find Sherry because she offered exactly what I was looking for. We wanted a choreographed dance just for us and privatelessons and most other dance places only had group lesson offers or were extremely pricey for private options. Sherry had it all and at a very reasonable rate. We were nervous at first because we are a same-sex couple and didn't know how the dance would look with 2 feminine women or if Sherry had ever dealt with choreographing a dance for 2 women but she did not disappoint! Sherry listened to everything we said we wanted, even my slightly unrealistic visions of Cinderella type grand ballroom dance moves :) Sherry was not only professional and displayed an obvious passion for dance but she was incredibly fun to work with. She genuinely cared about making our dance exactly what we had envisioned and wanted us to be happy with and love our dance, and we absolutely were! We not only found a dance instructor whom we certainly want to teach us more dances, but we also had the pleasure of getting to know a wonderful person and quickly adored her and are happy to call Sherry our friend.

Sherry is an exceptionally skilled and patient dance instructor. After only a few lessons I feel confident enough to go to social dances. She worked closely with me to give me a good foundation, and to assuage any concerns/anxieties that I had. 10/10 would recommend!

Sherry was an excellent teacher. My dance partner and I were total novices to dancing and lacked the confidence to event try in public but after her thoughtful and personalized dancelessons, we are much more confident dancers. After just 6 lessons, we are ready to go dancing downtown or at weddings and just have fun! We'll definitely be back.
