The Flying Pig Dance Studio

ke a fun date night for us to go to the studio! We did part 1&2 and also the 2 private lessons which has been the best money we spent for the whole wedding. We are feeling confident in our dance moves and also in our ability to do dips for pictures! We also got to meet other couples in the studio which was SO fun! Thank you Erika!!

rst session, Erika went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable, confident, and excited about dancing together. She is warm, kind, incredibly patient, and so clearly passionate about helping couples find joy through dance and music. Erika took the time to understand our vision, our personalities, and our comfort levels, and then crafted a routine that felt so perfectly us. Her ability to break things down in a fun, approachable way made every lesson something we genuinely looked forward to. By the time our big day came, we felt fully prepared and, more importantly, truly connected. She didn’t just teach us steps; she gave us a beautiful moment we’ll remember forever. If you're looking for a dance instructor who’s not only talented but also genuinely invested in making your experience magical, book lessons with The Flying Pig today!

ked into her studio. Her energy and passion made us feel confident while learning our first dance routine.

REAT pre-wedding date night going to the instruction and learning alongside other couples. Highly recommend doing this!

ce. The dance we learned was doable, but looks amazing and so well rehearsed. We would highly recommend taking lessons here for your wedding. We are planning on going back and continuing to learn how to dance!

ouple of basic moves and feel natural dancing in front of a crowd. Our expectations were surpassed here. By the end of our session, Erika made us feel ready and confident to nail our first dance. She taught us multiple twirls, a lift, and a dip, all to the music of our first song. Can't thank her enough!

ves, and then she helped choreograph our entire first dance. We don’t love attention, but are really excited to show off our new skills at our wedding.

the first dance without the focus on footwork. We felt so much more comfortable during our first dance because of these classes. Thanks, Erika!

her/son, and bride/groom. She was so happy for us, helpful, kind, genuine, and fun. I would do this again in a heart beat! If you want to learn a new dance for your big deal, she is the perfect person!

ed about it. Now it is one of the things I am looking forward to the most at our wedding! We learned way more than we expected and now we are confident in our slow dance skills. This was super fun!

d us off with simple moves to practice, which somehow evolved into an entire 3 minute dance that aligned perfectly with our first dance song! She even helped us decide on our song, we discussed and strategized about the venue, and she listened to our questions and feedback during every session. We highly recommend her and would love to join other classes offered at Flying Pig!

ng. She is wonderful and we are so grateful for our time with her!

and excited!😊

ake sure we felt comfortable. Truthfully, neither of us were looking forward to them until we met Erika for our first lesson and felt about 10x more comfortable and most importantly, more confident. We loved our 5 lessons with her so much we added on 2 lessons for our respective Father/Daughter and Mother/Son dances and our parents were also over the moon with her and her ability to mold to our personalities. I cannot say enough great things about Flying Pig Dance Studio or Erika, just know she is worth her weight in gold.

to my wedding was the first dance. I knew going in that my fiance and I would need lessons. I am THRILLED we went with The Flying Pig! Erika is the GREATEST instructor. She made all the steps seem so attainable and doable. Even when my fiance or would mess up, she was so patient and amiable. She was a joy to learn from and work with. We even scheduled another dance lesson for after the wedding and we will be going back for her date night events! Groom's Review: I loved how easy it was. Erika actually made learning to dance fun. The first dance was the thing I was most worried about going into wedding planning, etc., so much so that I didn't even want to do the first dance. By the wedding day, the first dance was the thing I was most confident in because we had practiced so much and Erika's teaching and choreography were so amazing.

we only knew it had special meaning to us and were hoping we could have our instructor turn it into something great. Erika did just that! In just six lessons we were able to learn our entire dance and perform it with confidence in front of our guests. We got lots of comments saying how great it was, especially because our friends and family know we're not dancers! It's one of my favorite memories from our wedding. Highly, highly, highly recommend Erika!

, and we can't wait to continue to do dances with her now that the wedding is over. Erika is amazing!

with the dance and offered great tips/advice in a kind, respectful way. It was a fun experience for us both!

b of teaching the basics. She showed us how to incorporate a few moves in our first dance without it being completely choreographed or overly complicated. The best part is that she took a video of our first dance at the end of our lesson so we could go back and watch later on. It was such a fun experience and we felt SO much more confident & prepared on our wedding day! I highly recommend working with her. You won’t regret it!

anyone could feel confident doing a beautiful first dance with that package, but we had so much fun we decided to continue to the Intermediate series. Erika is great at offering feedback and instruction, and she really helped us become great dance partners to one another. Our wedding first dance went perfectly and was also so much fun. Taking dance lessons was actually my husband's idea because he wanted to feel more confident for our first dance. I would not have thought to do it without his suggestion. While dance lessons may not seem like a "need" in an increasingly complex wedding planning process, the opportunity to connect with each other and learn something new together during our engagement was priceless. I would highly recommend!

tire lesson. We went into our first dance totally confident and prepared! Would 100% work with her again! We will be checking out her other lessons for our next date night...

moves that she taught us were not only easy to do but also fun to execute! As an added bonus, they looked beautiful and professional to those watching as well. I even overheard one of bridesmaids say, "I guess those lessons paid off" as we were dancing, and she was absolutely right. I would recommend Erika to absolutely anyone!

with different backgrounds in social dance and a lack of confidence in our abilities to learn. She was the exact right teacher to make us feel welcome and comfortable. She really understood our goals for taking dance lessons and made us feel relaxed and confident. We ended up taking both a group class and individual class with her and loved both formats. We would love to take more opportunities to participate in her group classes and social dance events in the future!

ted and ready for our first dance. The studio is so cute, too!

d may sign up for zoom classes for at home date nights.

y partner and I to take a moment together - without any of the other wedding stress, and just have fun. Erika was absolutely wonderful and has the most positive attitude! She was incredibly professional, passionate and patient as we learned so many great moves! Even in a group setting she always made it feel personal. The environment was very clean and Erika took all of the right COIVID precautions. We enjoyed it so much we scheduled a few private lessons with Erika, where she helped us plan timing and our entrance for our first dance. We brought our parents to our final lesson as a way to “kick off” the wedding week and practice our mother/son and father/daughter dances. It was so much fun and an experience I will cherish deeply. Thank you Erika!

y wife with dance lessons as she expressed trepidation about the 'first dance' being clumsy and/or boring. I found The Flying Pig Dance Studio highly rated on The Knot and then booked two lessons with Erika. She has such a positive demeanor, is calm, cheerful, and encouraging. All the things you'd want in a dance instructor for a couple with a combined total of 4 left feet. She completely raised our confidence with instructions and concepts that were simple to understand and execute! It made our big day that much better feeling comfortable performing our romantic first dance, and now we will always have these slick dance moves in our back pocket for the rest of our lives. Thanks, Erika!

Pig! She even recorded our dance so we could practice before the big day.

e didn’t want to spend our first dance overthinking every step, counting, etc. Erika created a dance that was so easy but looked very professional. The moves were interchangeable and built on each other so there was no major learning curve. Erika has the sweetest personality, made every lesson so much fun, and was great to work with! A huge plus was that she took a video at the end of each lesson, talked through each move with little tips, so that we could practice while watching ourselves dance and hear Erika instruct us. 10/10, would absolutely recommend, 5 stars!!! Thank you Erika for helping us make our first dance so memorable. Alicia & John Freeman

er ability to get us prepared for our first dance at our wedding was amazing! We are getting married next week and are so excited for our dance, all thanks to Erika. Would 100% recommend and we will for sure be back for date nights!!

th how well the first dance went on the night of the wedding. We just focused on each other and used some of the techniques Erika taught us to just have fun with it. Highly recommend!

long with a final private class. Erika taught us fundamentals we'll use for dancing in the future, along with lots of fun show stopper moves and techniques! We ended up having a wonderful first dance, and some guests said it was one of the best they has seen. Thank you Erika!!

transfer those skills into dance. Erika was patient as could be with my husband and I. She was a great support and taught us some fun games so we felt looser and relaxed. She never became frustrated with us which was AWESOME because we were both a little nervous going into this process! Overall, I would highly recommend The Flying Pig for those who are wanting to make their first dance on their wedding night one to remember. We had guests coming up to us for the rest of the night saying how impressed they were that we did more than just sway around. Thank you so much Erika for the wonderful experience!

of moves at our own pace, practice with our music, and my fiancé and I got to reconnect during a stressful time aka wedding planning and COVID.

e. We also loved that she worked with us on fun dance moves instead of typical ballroom dancing. Definitely recommend her!

itely be going back the more lessons :) Super cute studio too!
