Real couples. Real first dances.
See what our couples had to say about learning their first dance with The Wedding Dance Academy.
Katie & Danny
“Working with Hannah for our first dance was easily one of the best parts of our wedding planning. We miss it and will continue to take classes even after the wedding!! Neither of us came in as dancers, but Hannah made us feel excited and ready to go from day one. She created choreography that felt natural, elegant, and like us – and were moves that we were able to learn to do well. She always took the time and attention to make sure she was teaching us in a way we were able to understand and execute on. We were always so excited to go to dance class. On our wedding day, we were SO excited to for our dance instead of feeling nervous and our guests were so impressed. She helped us create the most wonderful memory, made the entire process super fun, and made sure we were prepared when wedding day came. Love Hannah and absolutely 100000% recommend working with her!!!!”
Jessica & Jamie
“Looking back on wedding planning, some of the most fun moments were during dance lessons and practice! Thanks so much for helping us build and learn such a great first dance! Our guests are still telling us how great it was! It was such a pleasure working with you!”
Chelsea & Paul
"Hannah was the sweetest, most patient teacher. She created a routine that struck the perfect balance - polished and intentional without feeling overly choreographed. When our wedding day arrived, we felt completely prepared, and our first dance turned out even better than we imagined."
Rhian & Omi
“Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all your patience, guidance, support + dance expertise over the past several months! We’ve really enjoyed our time on the dance floor and plan to continue dancing together for many years to come!”
"We began not knowing anything and feeling quite uncoordinated, but your help and encouragement made us feel confident in ourselves and definitely more coordinated than ever before... We appreciate you helping to make the lessons truly a highlight of this whole wedding experience."
Christine & Cameron

Tiana & Jason
“We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding dance instructor than Hannah! From our very first lesson, she was incredibly patient, encouraging, and made us feel comfortable every step of the way. Her instructions were always easy to follow, and she had a way of breaking everything down so it never felt overwhelming. Hannah gave us so many helpful pointers that made a huge difference in both our confidence and our dance. She’s an amazing teacher who genuinely cares about her students and wants them to succeed. We feel so lucky to have had Hannah as our instructor, and she helped make our first dance something we’ll always remember.”

Neha & Roman
"Thank you so much for all of your hard work! Everyone kept saying how perfect our first dance was & that's all thanks to you!”
“Hannah was the absolute best teacher - we signed up for a 10 pack of lessons and she took us from stepping on each other’s feet to at least looking like we know what we’re doing! And she helped us have fun during the whole process too. Highly recommend!”
Brandi G.
"A big thank you! I think it's safe to say we killed our first dance and everyone was so impressed! It was fun, sexy, and goofy but also showed how much we cared about it.”
Rachel R.
"Thank you for your patience and wonderful lessons. We are so excited to dance at our wedding because of your wonderful teaching!"

Austin & Betty
“My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Hannah for both our destination and local wedding. Hannah was amazing at listening to our songs and coordinating choreographies that were both unique and “us”. I’m someone with 2 left feet when it comes to dancing, yet she was able to teach us ways to pull of big lifts, spins, and waltz-steps that changed pace matching the dynamic rhythm of our songs. We also had her help us with mother-son dances! We’re proud to have pulled off one of the most unique dances we’ve ever seen in weddings, and it’s all thanks to Hannah’s patience, expertise, creativity, and guidance! Also adding that despite learning the dances for our weddings, my husband and I also had a great time learning to stay in rhythm together. It makes for a great date too :) All in all, we can’t recommend Hannah enough!!”
Sarah & Tyler
"Your patience, encouragement, and expertise made the whole experience so enjoyable, and we're very grateful to have met you!"
Cean & Evelyn
"Your calm presence gave us confidence in our dancing ability and helped us truly enjoy the journey instead of stressing about the steps."
Terrie & John
"Our guests honestly couldn't stop talking about it, especially how smooth John's dancing was beyond expectations! We've been proudly telling everyone we learned from the best!"
“It was amazing! We seriously crushed it and it was soo fun. Everyone said it was the best first dance they’ve ever seen!!”
Kelsey R.
“Hannah was the best instructor! She crafted our wedding dance over a series of 10 sessions that was beautiful and suited to our dance style/ability. She had great attention to detail and cares a lot about each of her clients. We ended up with an amazing dance on our wedding day!”

Michelle & Kenny
“I found Hannah’s Dance Academy through ChatGPT, and she was actually the first dance academy that was recommended to me! After our very first intro lesson, my fiancé and I knew we didn’t need to look anywhere else. Hannah is such an amazing teacher! We were complete beginners, but she was incredibly patient with us and made every lesson so much fun. We ended up taking 15 lessons with her, and I can’t believe how much we learned and improved! The final choreography she created for us completely exceeded our expectations. We are SO excited to perform our first dance and show all of our friends and family what we’ve been working on! I 100% recommend working with Hannah, especially if you’re looking for someone who is patient, encouraging, talented, and makes the whole experience enjoyable. Thank you, Hannah, for making this experience so special!”
Georgina & Andre

Kajal & Nick
“The dance went INCREDIBLE we got so so many compliments after the fact and were so happy with how it all turned out! We couldn’t thank you enough for making that possible!”

Shan & Richie
“You are the best dance teacher ever - we mean it! We had so freaking much fun learning to dance with you and we love our dance so incredibly much.”

Katie V.
“Where do I begin? Hannah has been the most amazing dance instructor! My fiance and I were unsure at first if we needed a dance instructor but we decided to take a look. ChatGPT recommended us to Hannah and it was the best recommendation and the best choice that we made. The choreography for our wedding song was amazing and my fiance and I are so happy with how everything came out. We had no experience in dancing but we went from learning the basics to now learning moves that we never imagined doing. Hannah was super patient with us and we would not have made it this far without her! Also, even with our busy schedule with wedding planning and work, Hannah was super flexible with her schedule and we were able to plan our dance practices so easily. Every lesson was so enjoyable and I have to say I'm gonna miss having these practices. Newly engaged couples... if you are looking for a dance instructor, look no further! Hannah is the right instructor for you!”
