Wedding Dance Lessons

Working with Betty was great! She was able to teach my husband & I our complete first dance in 4 lessons. Neither of us have any experience in dancing & she was so patient and made it so easy for us to learn. We did practice at home a few nights a week before our lesson & that helped a-lot too. Let’s just say, everyone at our weddings jaw was dropped at the end of our dance, we did SO good & people are still bringing it up to us. I’f we ever needed to take lessons again I would definitely go back to Betty, her prices were much more affordable than any other ones I found in our area! I can’t wait to get our photos back to send one over! Thanks Betty! Tyler Childers I’m all Yourn Dancers -Jess & Rob Timmerman

Wedding Dance Lessons

My husband and I signed up with Betty for a dance lesson for our first dance at our wedding. I was very impressed with her responsiveness to my inquiry, and within 48 hours we had a scheduled date for our first lesson! Neither of us have had professional dance lessons before, so we had no idea what we were stepping into! We were pleasantly surprised when we drove up to her cozy studio, and were greeted by Betty with a warm smile and immediately felt at ease with her. It was extremely evident that Betty had listened to our first dance song prior to our session and had thought out the perfect steps for us to do, knowing we had little to no dancing experience. After the first session we walked away feeling more confident in our skills and were impressed with how much we had learned from her in just 1 hour. We ended up going back for a second session which solidified our dance and added a "finale". Our performance at our wedding felt authentic, romantic, and most importantly we had FUN up there! Thanks so much Betty, we are forever grateful and will remember our moves for future dancing and our anniversaries to come.

Private Dance Lessons

It was a great experience. Highly recommended. Betty was also very patient, which is a huge positive - as both myself and my husband are clumsy and have no coordination.

Wedding Dance Lessons

My husband and I took our first dance lessons with Betty. We didn’t know what to expect but she taught us all of the dance moves we needed to execute a perfect waltz dance on our wedding day. I’m so happy we got our lessons with her and highly recommend her to anyone else wanting to learn how to dance.

Like to hear the word 'perfect' - glad it went well! You both put a lot of effort into it also.

Wedding Dance Lessons

I don’t have enough nice things to say about Betty Hood and her dance studio: Kitchen Dancing. Planning a wedding can be stressful, and I can say without a doubt in my mind that deciding to take dance lessons with Betty was not only one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, but was the most fun part of wedding planning in general! We so enjoyed our lessons with Betty, so much so we added a few additional. She is patient, kind, direct, and professional. We had a lot of fun learning our choreographed number, and appreciated her great understanding of working with beginners/people that aren’t naturally the best of dancers. Our dance turned out perfectly and we are so happy with the results. If you’re looking to have a choreographer for your wedding dance, look no further, you’ve won the lottery with Betty!

Thank you, Jill - the best part about teaching is meeting nice people like you and Chris! I'm happy it was fun and worked out so well for you. Betty
