Liza was amazing to work with! I didn't initially have any clue what I really wanted out of the experience, other than not to be doing the "middle school sway" for our first dance as husband and wife...And Liza was full of ideas! We ended up le...arning the basics of an entire Latin ballroom style, and on a pretty tight timeline, in order to learn a special dance to the song we chose! It was so fun!!
My husband had a harder time picking up the dance moves because he was brand new to partner dancing altogether. Liza was very sensitive to that, and she was always encouraging and patient (even when my own patience was wearing thin!). Eventually, even he was able to get the moves down comfortably! (Guys: it's all about practice!)
Liza's teaching style is very adaptable, too -- if you come for your next lesson and you've crushed everything she's given you so far, she's got millions of ideas on where to go next. Or if you come in and you're still struggling with a spot in your dance, she knows how to really break it down until each person could do it in their sleep.
I know that, technically, dance lessons are on the "optional" list for wedding planning. But really, they shouldn't be. The time we spent learning something new together was so memorable, and it really relieved some of the wedding stress! Liza made sure we had fun, and that we were relaxed and comfortable with our tailor-made dance. Because of that, our first dance was joyful, effortless, and so very special. Thank you, Liza!
