They are deeply passionate about wedding choreography and cherish being a part of your journey. Having guided hundreds of couples across Canada, both in-person and online, they ensure you feel confident and thrilled for your special day.
Our instructors, many of whom have studied dance at the university level, performed with musical artists and prominent figures, and are Canadian and North American dance champions, are here to create a dance that perfectly fits your vision. Whether you’re looking for an intricate routine with lifts and tricks or a minimalist, elegant dance, we’ve got you covered. We design our sessions to be a fun and romantic date night experience, letting you and your partner enjoy quality time together to a song you love. This is not a stressful part of your wedding planning—our team is dedicated to making you feel comfortable and excited. From the beginning, you’ll love every moment of your dance journey and be eager to showcase it on your wedding day, regardless of style or difficulty.
