We hired Sophia to choreograph our first dance and she did such an amazing job. We did the ten class pack. Every class she would add a little more. We loved showing up to class- it was so fun and like a little weekly date leading up to the wedding. We had a lot of compliments on our dance and when you watch the video back you can hear the guests oohing and ahhing. The dance was so romantic and she did a good job making it flow and not making it seem too staged or cheesy. We also got a lot of good photos, as she plans moments to be captured within the dance. Thank you so much Sophia!
Sophia - please RESPOND to me my question. I have been waiting to see if I"m getting better where I can move around better and still not capable to be there yet. To this day Oct 2022, my medical condition has not been treated should I be unable to come to dance as I didn't plan for this to happen to me and if you did what I did, you would better understand if you were a disabled veteran yourself.
I think you don't want to refund people is what I"m gathering. On Dec 2021, you said on here, after an earlier comment had an expiration; and recently on here, you're stating there is no expiration but it would have been nice to know upfront the specifics because there was nothing to sign but to pay you. I noticed compared to your price, there are 12 classes for $51 versus your 10 classes for $60 and I only used 2 classes since I signed up. I may have to put reviews and or file complaint for a $ refund of $60.
Earlier comment: I was checking out to see about getting myself into dancing Feb 2021 then around Covid time; it wasn't helping, as well as, my health condition as Sophia knew I couldn't last long to dance when I would come there as it was starting to become a problem. So far, I came only twice and bought a package of 10 classes for a discounted rate from Sophia but then as time or years went by, I couldn't make it due to being a drive further and my health condition got worse (was in a scooter but walking awkwardly) and have been keeping track to notify Sophia about it. The last time we talked before the new year 2022, she said to call to see how I am by then so I waited to see if I can still get treated and still have not to this day, and trying to ask for a 'partial refund' but it sounded like they were desperate to keep the money and not seeming to work with me now as I tried calling her last week and no callback. If my condition was ever to get better, I would be back when I can but trying to find other modalities and waiting for medical to figure out what my condition is if they can find treatment for it if it's not too late.
Sophia is amazing. We wanted to do something special and more than the traditional 2-step for our first dance at our wedding and starting classes with Sophia was such a good decision! Our guests were very impressed, and I must say we were impressed with ourselves as well!
We took 10 classes over the course of about 6 months. Sophia choreographed a dance to our song that we were comfortable with, but one that also pushed us to do moves we didn't think we were capable of. My now husband and I have no dancing experience, but on our wedding day you would never guess that .
Sophia is such a sweetheart and is very experienced in what she does. You won't regret working with her!
Sophia is THE BEST. My fiancé and I wanted to come up with a fun, high-energy dance routine for our wedding and couldn't have done it without Sophia. She helped us learn all the basic steps, choreograph the routine, and polish all the rough edges. She understood our song and what we wanted, and created the perfect dance for our special day. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone (including people like me with zero dance training)!
Sophia is a wonderful dancer, instructor, and just an all around great person to know! She took my fiance and I from complete "what am I doing here" novices to busting out a personalized and fully choreographed dance with confidence, and in only 10 lessons! Our first dance for our wedding was a huge success, and we were surprised by how much we enjoyed the process. Prior to this, neither he nor I knew what we were doing and didn't really care to be in the spotlight. Somehow she brought the best out in us, and we are hooked. Private lessons = phenomenal, but her group classes are great too, and so much fun! Really practical knowledge for competitive AND social dancing. If you're looking for a dance instructor, look no further. Sophia is the real deal!
Sophia is an excellent dance teacher! We had 6 lessons with her and ended up with an awesome 2.5 minute dance. She listened to our song and choreographed the whole thing. We are so glad we took lessons! Our first dance turned out beautiful!
Sophia helped my now-husband and I with our first dance at our wedding. She was so sweet and immediately made us feel comfortable, even though we had no dancing background. She came up with fun and elegant choreography that ended up impressing all the guests at our wedding, but more importantly we had so much fun dancing and connecting together. We'd both love to continue dancing together as a hobby, all thanks to Sophia! She is an amazing and patient teacher and I couldn't recommend her more!
My fiance and I wanted a choreographed, unique, special routine for the first dance of our wedding. We are not dancers and had no idea if this was feasible. But then, we found Sophia! She gave us confidence that we could do something spectacular and was very patient from the beginning. Throughout our lessons with Sophia, she gave us thorough instruction on the steps, form, attitude, and everything else. The routine she created for us was perfect and just what we were hoping for. I highly recommend her energetic, fun personality for anyone looking to either take dance lessons or create a routine for a special event.
My fiance and I went to Sophia for dance lessons before our wedding. We had no dance experience or ability and she was amazing! In just five sessions she taught us the basics and a simple routine that we love. Our wedding is in less than a month and we are feeling confident and at ease about something we were VERY nervous about before. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs some help for their first dance!
Thank you Sophia for teaching us the basic moves of dancing. She's very professional and has passion in what she does. She's patient and very accommodating to us, too. Since we only signed up for two classes because of our time constraints, she was still able to teach us techniques and moves that could help unexperienced dancers like us conquer our fears, trust each other, feel the rhythm of the music, and actually enjoy dancing together. Once we learned how to dance the basic steps, me and my husband were able to build a choreography from it. And based on what we heard so far from our guests, our first dance was a success! I'll definitely recommend her.
Sophia is absolutely fabulous! With 3 weeks left until our wedding, my fiance and I realized that we needed help with our first dance. Adding to our problems was the fact that we both live far away from each other and the only time that we could do dance classes was ONE weekend where I flew up to see my fiance. I frantically called/emailed a few places around the bay area a few days before coming up, and Sophia was the only instructor who replied right away. We asked her if she could squeeze us in for three classes and she happily agreed. We then emailed her the name of our song and by the time we had our first lesson, Sophia had already thought out the choreography for our first dance.
The dance lessons themselves were fun and very helpful. Even my fiance, who hates to dance, enjoyed himself. We both felt very comfortable with Sophia. We would have loved to have taken more classes with Sophia but alas, time was not on our side.
First off, my fiancé and I have two left feet. Seriously, we have fun when we dance, but we’re not winning any competitions any time soon. That being said, we wanted to learn a few moves so we wouldn’t trip over each other during our first dance at our wedding. We really didn’t know what to expect and were admittedly a bit nervous during our first session, but Sophia was terrific! She made us laugh right away which kept us calm and her upbeat nature was infectious. Since both of us have no dancing experience, she started with some basic moves all while getting to know us better during the session. At the end of the session, we gave her a few songs we were considering and asked her opinion. By the next lesson she had a recommendation and choreography to go along with it! I have to admit, she was spot on with her choice and had an amazing eye for subtle nuances that embodied both our personalities. She worked with us over the next few weeks, showing tremendous patience, while we sometimes struggled with some of the more basic steps. By the end, the routine was spectacular! We could really tell Sophia put the time and energy into making it was personal and tailored to us. I would recommend her to any couple looking to polish up on their steps or even learn some new ones. If she can make a couple of clumsy dancers like us look graceful, then she can teach anybody. Thanks Sophia!
My Fiance, Ian, and I have been working with Sophia for about 5 weeks now to develop our Tango skills. We only just divulged to her, this week, that we are seeing her because we wish to do a tango as part of our fist dance. In our experience, Sophia is truly fantastic as an instrucotor. She possesses the qualities of a truly helpful dance instructor: Excellent skill and ability to teach it; attunement to what corrections and exercises are needed; fantastic skill as a dancer; and wonderful care and devotion as an instructor. She is a delight to work with and we are so pleased we were able to find her to support us in making our wedding dance vision come to life!
Thank you so much, Sophia! My fiance, Andrew, and I have been very impressed with your lessons. Every time we come in, no matter what the stresses of the day, we come and have fun. Your calm and patient manner really helps us focus on the dance and enjoy the lesson. We love your enthusiasm and positive attitude and you always make us feel like we're pros. We can't wait for our next lesson!
