This 3-week class was exactly what my fiance and I needed to prepare for our first dance. We didn't want cheesy choreography but I couldn't bear the thought of shifting our weight from side to side, boring our friends and family to tears. Audra and John are upbeat, great teachers, and gave a lot of personalized attention to every couple. The class vibe was so positive, we couldn't wait to go back for our dancing "high" each week!

Gave a lot of good little tips that my fiancee & I had not considered like what to think about when picking musing & how to manage the dress so it doesn't get caught up.
