Nick was the absolute best! We came to him very last min in need of a first dance for our wedding only a few days before, and he delivered in so many ways. He was extremely accommodating and went out of his way to work with us on our schedule to help us in a bind, and made the overall experience fun and super digestible to learn. For both of us who had zero prior dance experience he made us feel welcome, confident, and good in our movements and overall routine. We came away with a beautiful routine that we were thrilled to have as our first dance. We loved our time working with him and will look to book some one off sessions as fun date nights after our big day. Can’t recommend Nick highly enough!

Nick has been an absolute pleasure to work with over our 10+ class journey! My fiancé and I came to him with no prior dance backgrounds and he managed to choreograph (and perfect) an almost 3 minute dance routine for us for our First Dance. He was incredibly responsive, encouraging, and professional. Any request we made, he fulfilled it. He made each lesson fun yet highly productive and was able to coach both the lead and the follow roles. We would recommend him to anyone with no hesitation and we can’t wait to continue our dance journey with him after our wedding!

We had a fantastic experience with Nick! He’s a very patient teacher and was completely dedicated and focused to make our wedding dance perfect and unique for us. We were under extreme time pressure and Nick moved mountains. He is an overall great guy and we highly recommend him.

We've never taken dance lessons before and he easily calmed our fears and within a month taught us a wedding dance that we're very excited with! Fun to work with, listens and coaches very well, we're only sorry we didn't sign up sooner!

Nick is an amazing instructor! We never were into dance, but had to take lessons for our wedding. With Nick’s guidance, we ended up loving it and now continue the lessons after our wedding. He’s extremely versatile, patient and creative. He also takes the time to explain and break down routines to a very rudimentary level for those of us who need it!
