We had our wedding last May 4th and had a choreography by Donna. We chose to dance with Die with a Smile. Donna gave us a great choreography, all of our guests were surprised. In just 4 sessions, we were able to complete the dance! And we're both not dancers! She's sweet, professional and amazing! Highly recommend

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

Donna coordinated my fiancé and I first dance we get married on Sunday and we couldn’t be happier with how our dance turned out. We absolutely loved working with her and will be back just to learn more dances. She is extremely fair with pricing, honest and reliable. She is one of the kindest souls you’ll ever meet and truly felt like family. My sooner my husband and I were so sad on our last lesson to say goodbye to Donna. But we will definitely be back!

Details: Two (ex. me and my partner) • First dance • Wedding party dance • What my teacher recommends • No, I do not have choreography in mind • No experience • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Donna was so amazing and fun to work with! We used her for our first dance for our wedding and we can’t recommend her enough!! She has such a nice studio right in Boca that made our sessions nice and enjoyable! Our dance was perfect, just choreographed enough with the music and our guests were SO impressed! Donna is so sweet and makes you feel safe and comfortable no matter what your dance skill level is! Book Donna if you want to Wow your guests!!!
