Rockin' Horse Dance Barn

urchased a groupon from a local studio which provided a basic overview of most dances so we could get our feet wet, so to speak, and judge what we had to work with. At the end of our groupon, we were pulled into a side room and pushed into the upsell game. While the staff there was friendly, there was a lot of side chit chat which took away from the time we would end up spending dancing overall…when you pay money for dance lessons, I didn’t want to just stand there. I searched reviews online, and ended up booking a single lesson at Rockin Horse Dance Barn to see how their teaching style differed from what we had previously experienced. It was a night and day difference and we haven’t looked back. We worked with Dave, the owner, and explained our situation and he worked with us to choreograph our first dance. The initial song that we had chosen ended up being too fast; he and his wife demonstrated how we could dance to it, and we decided sprinting through our first dance was sub optimal. We ended up choosing a different song, which worked out to be a much better fit. Dave was patient with my husband’s two left feet, and helped me find my rhythm. If we didn’t like a particular step he showed us, it was no big deal to let him know and we used something else. The dance came together and it was amazing. The day of the wedding was a blur, but watching the video was the most incredible feeling. The dance began as they all do, side conversations here and there…but by a third of the way into the dance, all eyes were on us. We were focused on each other, we didn’t miss a step and everyone cheered after each turn, and at the end of the dance. When we were walking off the dance floor, the MC stated that that was what two people in love look like. It was amazing and so emotional. We will definitely be back to continue taking lessons together. It was great to have quality time with my husband while we do an activity together. Thank you Dave for giving us a memory that will last a lifetime!

edding went smoothly. He was there early for set up, met with us to do a quick run though of the timeline. He and my wedding coordinater ran the show from then on. One thing you get with Dave that you dont get with other DJ's is he is a profressional dance instructor. So after dinner everyone went out to the dance floor and he taught a lesson in how to do the jitterbug. My guests loved it. My children are in their 20's them and their friends were all participating it was great. They all thought Dave was a great dancer! My daughter and her boyfriend are even thinking about taking some jitterbug lessons. It truley added to the fun of our wedding.

other things and made the food and events go much smoother. I highly suggest him!
