We took private lessons with Achiko over the summer for our fall wedding and learned so much in our 10 two hour long lessons! We were looking for weekend private lessons with someone who knew multiple dance styles. We were beginners and by the end had our first dance completely choreographed, learned basic Kizomba steps to do an African style dance, and dips and lifts. Whatever we were interested in, he'd work on with us. The choreography was collaborative, if something didn't feel right he easily adjusted based on our feedback, and we often showed IG clips of something we wanted to learn and he broke it down step by step. If you're debating doing dance lessons, do it! It's worth the money to feel confident
Achiko is a fantastic dancer and an even better instructor! He can take 2 people without any dance experience and make them look amazing on the dance floor together.
He is very flexible with his schedule so as to accommodate his students' schedules. He is also punctual, energetic and patient.
If you are thinking about doing a choreographed dance for your wedding, do not hesitate to book a lesson with Achiko. You won't be disappointed, and neither will your wedding guests.

We were very happy with the wedding dance choreography that Achiko Saga designed for us. The dance almost spoke to us with its elegance and style. We had almost to none experience in dancing but in just a couple of months Achiko made sure that we knew what we were doing. Years ago we took lessons somewhere else but it was nowhere as much fun as it was with Achiko. We were so happy with this experience that we are recommending my niece who is getting married next year to do lessons with him!
My fiancé and I have been searching for a wedding dance instructor that would cater to our needs for our wedding dance music. We did not want to do some generic moves on the dance floor but that is what we were getting until we found Achiko Saga.
He customized our dance and made it very unique to us. Steven and I could not be more happier. Covid pandemic put our wedding on hold but in a way it worked out because we ended up working with Achiko. It was a fun experience and we learned a lot. He knows so many dances and is professionally trained. He can really make an amateur look like a pro! Thank you Achiko for making our day special and look good on the dance floor. We both highly recommend him!
Achiko has made Mondays into one of my favorite weeknights. I reached out to Achiko because my Fiancé and I have two left feet and wanted our first dance to go smoothly. Every week he helps build our confidence. If he sees we are getting frustrated he helps by sprinkling in a joke or two and reminds us why we are taking the classes. He encourages us to continue practicing so on our special day we will be our best. I definitely recommend him to others who want to nail their first dance while dancing the stress away of wedding planning.
We loved Achiko’s choreography- it was beautiful! He was attentive to the details and made the enjoyable! It’s a fun couples experience. We also feel like we’re getting a skill that we can use for a lifetime. We had a couple of other instructors and preferred him for his professionalism and experience.
My fiance and I were nervous at first as we had tried two other dance studios that weren't quite making us feel at ease. We continued our search because, although we both had two left feet, we wanted to have a wedding dance. Achiko immediately made us feel comfortable with his sense of humor and went above and beyond in his instruction; always patient and breaking down steps in a way that was easy to learn choreography. I have no hesitation in recommending this studio to anyone who is looking to have an amazing experience in learning how to dance.
My fiancé and I have had an amazing time learning Argentine Tango here. Achiko has proven an excellent, experienced and infinitely patient instructor!
We both started off with zero experience. Achiko was able to break down the steps into bite size sequences that we could follow and also explained the reasoning behind them so we could understand the concepts and apply them in our own later on.
I will be recommending his expertise to all my friends and family in the future. Can’t wait to get married so I can see the recordings of our first dance!
