“My husband and I really enjoyed our experience learning our First Dance at The Dance Loft. We had no prior experience dancing and wanted to share our new talent with wedding guests. We couldn’t be happier with Angela, who we worked with mostly on our dance. She has fantastic attention to detail and shows you how to move with ease. Angela was very strategic to no stress on our end. She is so talented and made our lessons feel effortless and fun, and we highly recommend working with her. She also always made sure there were snacks and water out for us. We just loved her technique and ideas. Learn how to dance here (or practice with an expert) if you want a relaxed, fun, private 1:1 lesson experience. I can’t imagine a better place to do it!”

“Val was simply amazing. She is not only brilliant at learning what each person can do, but she has an uncanny ability to understand a couple and how they work together. My wife and I showed up early a few times and got to see how good Val is at tailoring her teaching methods to different couples.”

“Her process is so fun and engaging and. She helped each of us showcase our best selves and took time to understand where our strengths were for movement. She really knows her stuff! Val also gave my fiance a HUGE confidence boost and was able to help him break out of his shell and really own the dance floor”

“We worked with Angela at the Dance Loft for our first dance at our wedding, and it was a huge success! We had our first lesson via zoom a few months before the wedding and we were so impressed by the quality of lesson, even virtually. She even followed up with detailed notes about the different steps we had practiced during the session. We were slackers and didn’t end up practicing though, so about 1.5 weeks before the wedding we arranged two more lessons over zoom with Angela. We were a bit stressed having to figure out our dance so close to the wedding date, but we accomplished a lot during the sessions. In addition, Angela was very positive and encouraging, which helped us feel confident before the big day! She even taught us how to do a lift! The dance went beautifully and we were so grateful to Angela! She’s an amazing instructor.”

“We started as novices and ended with confidence on our wedding day. We took 8 lessons with Angela and 2 with Val. They worked seamlessly together sharing notes on our dance and keeping us moving along. We chose a non-traditional French song from the 60’s and Angela knew exactly how to choreograph it to give us the edge we wanted while keeping it super fun. Our wedding guests gave us a standing ovation at the end. We never would have imagined that we would end up being able to dance the way we did after only 10 lessons. Both Angela and Val are also incredibly fun people to be around so that made the time go by very fast!”

“If this review is part of your research, then you should absolutely consider all of the strong reviews and book today. The Dance Loft is a fantastic experience that tailors the experience toward your skill and comfort level. We loved working with Angela and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn specific moves for their special day or just become a little more expert at something they already know.

In preparation for our wedding, my fiancée and I want to showcase something special about our relationship in our first dance. The only problem was that we had no moves! Fortunately, we had heard amazing things from a few friends about The Dance Loft; in fact, two of our married couple friends had worked with Angela and had amazing things to say. We booked an appointment with her and quickly realized that she would not only help us realize our vision but also teach us some life-long dance lessons along the way!

We booked the 5-lesson package and found every one of them to fly by. Angela was great about quickly identifying our skill level and helping us learn the moves we needed to and practice the hardest moves over and over. Angela was also extremely thoughtful and had a fun and easygoing attitude.”

“My now husband and I put off dance lessons for our wedding until a couple months before; we chose The Dance Loft for it’s close location and high ratings. There are three instructors: Val, Kayleigh and Angela. We took lessons with all three but most of them were with Angela as we liked her style the best. We did around 12 lessons here because my husband had a very specific vision of what he wanted our first dance to look like!

Angela was great to work with in terms of balancing any tension between us, helping us with overall dance vision, and cleaning up certain sections at the end. She also handles any bride or groomzillas very well as my husband was constantly bringing in videos of DWTS and wanting her to replicate!

The approach we took was first to learn certain dance techniques - fox trot and swing, and then to work this into an actual wedding dance. Angela is clearly very passionate about what she does and I like that she video-ed us at the end of every class so that we could see things we were doing well / not well.

Angela was flexible with our schedules but do book in advance especially during wedding season. This place is open 7 days a week and has late lessons (last one starts at 9pm) so very good for people commuting. It’s also in a cute area and next to a lot of cool restaurants like Ungrafted.

I recommend without hesitation.”

“My husband and I did a series of five lessons here to prep for our wedding dance. We worked with Angela and had such a great experience. We started as novices and ended with almost ten separate dances/moves to put together for our wedding dance. Angela worked with us step by step to nail each move and put things together along with our song. The day of everything went flawlessly and people were very impressed with our moves. It was also a great bonding experience during the wedding planning process. We can’t wait to go back to the Dance Loft for more group classes!”

“We’ve been taking private wedding dance lessons for our first dance with Val. She has been absolutely wonderful. She spots the difficulties we have with great accuracy. She is great at explaining the dance moves and the feelings behind them. We had a lot of fun and learnt a lot. Every time we left her studio we were feeling super, filled with positive energy.

I would recommend her to anyone from beginner to proficient.”

“Angela from the Dance Loft helped my husband and I prepare for our wedding day dance. We had such a great experience and thoroughly enjoyed the private classes we took. Not only did Angela help choreograph our dance but she also taught us some basic dance moves for us to use in the future. We can now dance together at family parties and look like we know what we are doing! Thank you so much Angela!!”

“Thanks V, for really bringing home the fact that the dance doesn’t end when the music stops and the guests go home. And, for a killer routine that got us a 5 minute standing ovation!”

“My fiance (now wife) and I had an incredible experience working with The Dance Loft ahead of our wedding!

We purchased the 5 dance 1 hour package and it was perfect for our first dance on our big day.

Angela was our instructor for 4 of the 5 hours, and she was excellent! She helped us nail the moves, and designed a dance that worked for us and our song. We also worked with Val for one of the sessions and she too was fantastic to work with.

Angela and Val clearly have a passion for what they do and it shows!

We highly recommend The Dance Loft to anyone, and especially for first dance preparation!

“Dance loft was a blast and fun for Jonathan and I as a date as well as prepping for some good dance moves for the wedding! Angela was easy to work with and appreciated the difference in both of our learning styles. Was a blast working with them and would come back.”
