We had a fantastic experience with Nick! He’s a very patient teacher and was completely dedicated and focused to make our wedding dance perfect and unique for us. We were under extreme time pressure and Nick moved mountains. He is an overall great guy and we highly recommend him.

Nick has been an absolute pleasure to work with over our 10+ class journey! My fiancé and I came to him with no prior dance backgrounds and he managed to choreograph (and perfect) an almost 3 minute dance routine for us for our First Dance. He was incredibly responsive, encouraging, and professional. Any request we made, he fulfilled it. He made each lesson fun yet highly productive and was able to coach both the lead and the follow roles. We would recommend him to anyone with no hesitation and we can’t wait to continue our dance journey with him after our wedding!
Nick was fantastic! He helped us with our first dance at our wedding. His choreography was great and he made sure we liked the routine and were comfortable with the steps. Very friendly and fun instructor.
We hired nick just DAYS before our wedding and he helped us learn a dance that was easy to remember and looked terrific. We are so thankful for his services and we had so much fun! We will definitely plan date night lessons with him in the future. Thanks again for everything!
We've never taken dance lessons before and he easily calmed our fears and within a month taught us a wedding dance that we're very excited with! Fun to work with, listens and coaches very well, we're only sorry we didn't sign up sooner!
Nick is a great teacher who takes the time to make you feel very comfortable with him and the dance. Lessons are always great fun and you can see the improvement with time!!
I've been doing private 1:1 lessons with Nick for the last 7-8 months and it's been the most wonderful experience! I've seen myself improve in all the dance styles he's been teaching me including tango, salsa, and swing. There are dances I've tried that I never thought I would do in my lifetime, like the waltz! The biggest change for me has been my own confidence. To be really good at ballroom, I think you need a pretty high level of confidence when dancing, and this is something I've always wanted to improve. I have a long way to go, but Nick is one of the main reasons I've been able to break out of my shell. Nick does an incredible job at breaking down steps into digestible and easy-to-understand parts (and offers great analogies to help you understand more challenging aspects of different dances). Because of his teaching style, I'm able to pick up certain concepts after a lesson or two. The best part of working with him has been has infectious energy and sense of humor. When I was first looking for private dance teachers, a good number of the initial phone calls with other teachers were dry and humorless. I knew I wanted to find someone that was genuinely fun to be around, and dancing (as an adult beginner especially) should be lighthearted. Nick is a wonderful teacher (and dancer extraordinaire) all around, and my boyfriend and all my friends (who I've encouraged to come to him for lessons/classes) agree! You won't find a better dance teacher around! You should book a trial lesson, at least, and see what I mean when I say he's just an extraordinary instructor to work with; you'll be surprised at how quickly you can learn with his guidance. I plan to keep working with him for as long as he offers lessons (and I am still employed), and I'm beyond excited to see my progress in a few years.
We reached out to Nick to learn to dance for our wedding. We had very little dance experience and no idea of how to dance to the songs we had chosen (a waltz and a Turkish song with a complicated rhythm). In our first trial lesson, Nick’s talent and professionalism were immediately apparent. He made us feel comfortable, which was important because neither of us have significant dancing experience. His teaching method is patient and attentive, working with us individually during lessons, and providing constant input on form and technique — down to the smallest details. He can teach anyone to dance. He designed our routine from the bottom up, taking a genuine interest, even watching videos of Turkish dancing to incorporate certain elements. We practiced with him for about 3 months and by the end had a polished routine that we are very proud of. We genuinely enjoyed every minute of learning from Nick.
I had my first lesson yesterday. Nick was very professional. Patient instructor a pleasant experience. Will definitely refer friends and family. Looking forward to more lessons.
I started with zero experience and had an awesome experience learning how to dance salsa bachata and merengue with Nick. He is very patient, encouraging and super easy to communicate with. He is a fantastic instructor and always brings positive energy to the class. Thanks to him, I got to enjoy dancing as a absolute beginner. High recommended!
