Dance Easy
Teaching Couples to Dance With Style and Joy
Marlene was awesome! I bought 5 private dance lessons for both me and my fiancé for our first dance, and me and my dad for our father-daughter dance. Marlene was a great teacher, very patient, got down to business during the lessons, and was super flexible with schedules. Would highly recommend! It was nice to not just sway for these special dances and it was fun to learn a new skill.
Marlene was an awesome teacher. We went into these lessons just hoping to not look awkward for our first dance. We came out of the first of the three lessons with increased confidence and excitement for our dance. The next lesson we were able to add on more to our first dance, and the third lesson we worked out any sticky spots and felt 100% comfortable with our plan. My fiancé and I have never been able to dance cohesively together. Until now. My fiancé used to be so nervous to lead and I would try to take over and it just wouldn’t work. Now he has the confidence to push and pull me where he wants to go and I can turn my brain off. This is after only 3 lessons!!
Great experience and I would recommend dance easy to any bride and groom!
