Our time with Jennifer at IDS was extremely helpful and tailored to us, she crafted a natural and personalised dance while also including a few wow moments along the way. She made ...
myself, a dance hobbiest & my fiance, a more shy dancer, feel comfortable and confident throughout and was always willing and quick to respond and plan ahead with us. The fact that it was all virtual made this all the more possible with our hectic schedules. Would highly recommend to any couples in search of creating the first dance of their dreams xx

rsonal. Jennifer was not only incredibly talented and sweet but also completely accommodating. Plus, the virtual lessons were a lifesaver and allowed us to practice in the comfort of our own home and provided great flexibility for our super busy schedules.
We chose a medley of songs with different styles, and Jennifer and team seamlessly blended them into a cohesive performance that perfectly fit the feel we were looking to achieve. Jennifer worked with us to ensure the choreography matched our skill level (again, we’re not dancers! Lol) and gave us the confidence to shine on our big day. She also went above and beyond by providing tips for practicing on our own, prepping for the week leading up to the wedding, and even guiding us on how to coordinate with the MC and make the transition from cutting the cake to taking the floor.
The result was everything we hoped for and more. Our guests loved it, and we felt so at ease during a moment that could have been intimidating. If you’re considering dance lessons for your wedding, look no further than International Dance Studio and Jennifer. They’ll make sure your special moment is unforgettable!

zing. First is finding the beats, then is to something basically steps, and adding some fancy turns and dips. We performed a big WOW dance at our wedding. All our guest was cheering and asking how did we do that! Quite a performance! And plus! We felt like that’s something we can keep using for the rest of our life. These steps and moves are so versatile that we can easily adopt to other occasions! Not just a first dance you gonna learn from Jennifer but an actual real life dancer for sure! Thank you Jennifer!

She had set us up with a full dance from start to finish- even having us envision the space where we would enter the reception to make everything run smoother.

rience and candidly 2 left feet - well 4 if you add them together! By the end of our package of lessons, we surprised ourselves with our dance skills and never in a million years would have thought we would be doing spins and dips, never the less in front of nearly 100 people!! She also went over things we would never have thought about such as transitions, the parent hand off after the first dance, and what you do once you finish your dance. If you're on the cusp of deciding whether to do lessons or not - stop thinking, just do it! It was honestly our favorite parts of wedding planning. It's a great date night and we had so much fun each lesson!
Having gone through the classes and understanding their teaching approach, if you are considering virtual lessons there's no doubt in my mind that would still get the same out of it as if you were in person.
Overall I would 1000% recommend International Dance Studio!

She was friendly, outgoing, and very patient with us! Every lesson was amazing and extremely fun. We learned so much and each lesson was the highlight of our day. We nailed our first dance and were able to use what we learned throughout the night. Now, we can use our new moves for date nights and future weddings!

ultimately decided to go with International Dance studios based on the glowing reviews, reasonable prices, and their responsive communication! My dad and I worked with Patrizio to learn the Foxtrot to the song "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong. Patrizio was an amazing instructor! My dad and I aren't the best dancers, but Patrizio made us feel like we were. He was so patient, kind, and positive! Our wedding guests loved our father-daughter dance, especially the surprise ending that Patrizio helped us create! If you are looking for a place to learn a dance for your wedding, I highly recommend International Dance Studios.
