Alex is an amazing dance instructor! In just five lessons, he taught my fiancé and I a choreographed routine for our wedding song. Each lesson introduced new concepts and how to put everything together seamlessly. Alex is really nice and easy to talk to and is very patient when teaching. We feel so much more confident heading into the wedding first dance now and are excited to show off all that we have learned!

Absolutely loved Alex as our DJ. He made the planning process simple and fun. He was great at making sure the flow of the reception was perfect, was flexible with last minute changes, and was so friendly and professional the entire time. His music was incredible!!! I highly recommend him!

We were absolutely thrilled with our experience working with Alex! He did an incredible job helping us prepare for our wedding dance! From the fist lesson, Alex was not only professional but also genuinely encouraging and supportive. He took time to understand our vision and tailored the choreography to fit our style perfectly!
His expertise and patience made the whole process so much fun and stress-free! He made us think about multiple different aspects with posture and presentation for not just the dance but the entire wedding day that we would have not otherwise thought of, allowing us to feel confident on our big day! Our dance was a huge hit with our guests, and multiple people commented asking if we had taken lessons or asking how we had learned to perfect the moves. If you are looking for a dance instructor who is both skilled and personable, Alex is the one to choose! Highly recommend!

I would work with Simply Ballroom over and over again if I had a chance to redo my wedding. I personally loved that they provided fog machine and cold spark services, but Alex paid close attention to every detail and remembered things even l we forgot. The music selections were spot on and he made the evening so fun and unforgettable for us and our guests. Our special day was full of magic, love and laughter and we could not have pulled it off without all of his help!

Alex was very professional and knowledgeable on helping us learn dance moves. My wife nor I had any dance lessons before we did receive compliments on knowing how to dance. He did show us other moves that we did not use as we were nervous and my wife's dress did limit her arm movements.
His pointers on the entrance, maneuvering obstacles and suggestions were very helpful.

My husband purchased private dance lessons with Alex as a birthday surprise for me. We did a 4-pack of classes/once a week for four weeks to learn the Salsa for an upcoming trip to the Dominican Republic. My husband and I really had no prior dancing experience but that didn't stop us from having a lot of fun learning the Salsa. I really enjoyed Alex's teaching style; it was informative and focused on the basics at first, but the difficulty level progressed each week as we got better/got more practice in. Alex is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about dance. It was also obvious that helping people have the best experience, no matter what they are celebrating, was a top priority for him. Whether you are looking to learn a dance for an upcoming trip, a wedding, or just to learn something new, I highly recommend Alex & Simply Ballroom! (Oh, and dancing in the Dominican at our resort after dinners was a fantastic time!)

My now husband and I had a wonderful time working with Alex to learn a choregraphed dance to perform for our first dance at our wedding. I had some dance experience and my husband had none, and Alex worked with us to make sure we had a fun routine for our big day! We kept it a surprise and our friends and family were speechless; they thought it was so wonderful! We would highly recommend Simply Ballroom; Alex's dance studio is a beautiful space, and he really takes the time to work with you and pursue what your goals are for your first dance. We had a great time and would do it again/recommend this dance company.

Alex is simply FANTASTIC. He has the golden retriever energy you need from a dance teacher, DJ, and he is so talented. Such a delightful human to work with and he is the best of the best. I can't recommend him enough.

Alex and Rachelle and seriously life savers. My now husband and I were very uncomfortable with our previous DJ and decided to book a new DJ one week before the wedding. I did not think we would be able to find a replacement, but Simply Ballroom was more than willing to take us under their wing and make sure we had a perfect day. They were both very professional and made us feel confident that everything would go smoothly on wedding day. We had multiple phone call meetings to make sure everything was how we wanted it, and everything was perfect the day of the wedding! They were wonderful and we would recommend them to anyone!

As a couple, we took dance lessons to learn a routine for our first dance. Alex was fantastic at teaching us all the basics and an entire routine to our favorite song! We looked forward to our session each week and we're so excited to show our family and friends at the wedding! Highly recommend Simply Ballroom, especially if you're beginners like we were.

I highly recommend taking dance lessons with Alex! Whether it’s bride/groom, father/daughter, mother/son, or just for fun it will be so worth it. My Dad and I took dance lessons with Alex for our father/daughter dance and loved it. We had no previous dance experience, and Alex helped us every step of the way to learn how to dance in that setting. When the big day came, we were confident in ourselves, thanks to Alex. We are so happy that we went to Alex for lessons!

We had an absolute blast at Simply Ballroom, and we can't stop raving about Alex, the owner and our fantastic salsa dance instructor! Miranda and I were total beginners, but Alex's patience, passion, and skill made learning a breeze. His energy and enthusiasm are contagious, making each lesson not just informative but incredibly fun. We left feeling like salsa pros, and we're already planning our next visit for more lessons. Simply Ballroom with Alex is a gem, and we can't recommend it enough!

We cannot express our heartfelt gratitude for Alex and Rachelle’s exceptional talent in producing a truly memorable evening! TWICE!
After our experience with Simply Ballroom in October 2022, for my daughter and her husband’s wedding, we were confident in what Simply Ballroom could provide for our wedding. They surpassed any expectations we may have had by leaps and bounds. They were organized, efficient and worth every penny!
Alex and Rachelle’s creativity, dedication, and passion for our wedding and reception was truly spectacular! They were professional, patient, and fun.
Becoming involved in working smoothly with everyone, taking our ideas, and making them work. They think things through and are prepared for changing circumstances.
Simply Ballroom is an outstanding company to work with. They provided our DJ/MC Services, Cold Spark Fountains, Lighting, Photo Booth, and the Memory Book. All these services were remarkable. The one service I wasn’t prepared for was the coordination services. We did not have a wedding coordinator, and trying to do all this ourselves was overwhelming. We turned those duties over to Rachelle and boom, done. And done well!!
Their professional capability enabled them to smoothly match the energy of the changing atmosphere, advise us on the flow of events and they created the perfect playlist. Alex and Rachelle communicated clearly and frequently. This allowed for a relaxed, smooth, and completely low-stress day and evening.
Simply Ballroom was, and is, an exceptional company to work with.
We will always highly recommend all their services!
Please check out Simply Ballroom’s Facebook posts from June 14th to see some of their incredible work!
“Simply Ballroom provided DJ & Photo Booth Services for our second wedding this past Sunday at The Caboose in Red Oak Iowa for Mr. & Mrs. Johnson. This was a very special wedding for us considering we provided DJ services for the bride’s daughter last October. The weather was perfect for an outdoor wedding, and it was such a great turnout! Thank you again for trusting us with another wedding in your family. We can’t wait to see you all again!”

Alex DJ'd and MC'd our wedding and we simply could not be happier with how things went. We had a decent sized wedding (180) at Slowdown and really wanted the dance floor to be a major part of the party and Alex was huge in that happening. His selection and crowd interactions were on point and kept the energy high all night. In addition he was so helpful during all aspects of the night. He was super on top of it with keeping things on schedule and even volunteered to dismiss tables for dinner which was a massive help. I won't get married again, but if I did I would not even have to think about who I would call for a DJ.

We used Simply Ballroom for DJ and Photo Booth services and we loved them! Alex was absolutely amazing! I had several meetings with Alex leading up to the wedding and he made sure that we covered anything that could come up and everything went smoothly the day-of. Everyone had a great time and the music was perfect. We had a request for a specific type of music later in the evening and Alex had us rocking right away. The photo booth was also a huge hit! They had a lot of fun props and the attendants were great!
